Default Reef Safe Angels

Other than some of the Dwarf Angels, does anyone have any experience with Angels in Reef Tanks? I'd like to get a Majestic for my tank, but I've heard it can pick on "sessile inverts?"

Tristan, Unfortunately the majestic angels need a 180+ tank.

Checkout Wetwebmedia, Aquarium, Pond, Marine and Freshwater Fish, reef tanks, and Aquatics Information for recommended angels for reefs.

Jim, thanks for the link. I read up on the Majestic Angel and get very conflicting info. One source said that if you get a juvenile, about 2-3", it rarely gets larger than 6" and should do well in a 75-90 gal tank. I have several LPS (Blasto's, Lobo's and a new Favia Frag). The Majestic supposedly lives with SPS's like Acro's and shouldn't harm them.

I'd like to get a regular sized angel. They're so beautiful. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
