Dwarf Angel With Corals

[thomas10051988]

does anyone have any thoughts on the most peaceful of the dwarf angels in a reef tank

I have found that dwarfs are pretty peaceful with most stuff. Except their own kind in small tanks (under 150 gallons). And small gobies. They tend to pick at them.

Im pretty sure the coral beauty is the best with corals
BUT you never know, every fish is different

Dwarf angels are a unique lot when it comes to corals. Some individuals will nip at them, some won't. There doesn't seem to be a specific species which is less likely to do it than others. Lemon Peel angelfish do however have a reputation as more likely than the others to nip. Also, they do have a rather specific list of corals that they may nip: Open Brains, favites brains, millepora, stylophora, pocillipora, and rarely leathers. These seem to be the most often nipped, if the individual decides to nip.

My reccomendation: not a good mix with corals.
