Flame Angels and SPS

[chwkreefer]

Just wondering if anyone has had a problem housing Flame Angels with sps. I had a flame angle a number of years ago and it was fine with all my corals. But it wasn't an sps dominated tank at the time. My Flame died along with a number of other fish due to a long power outage. I'm thinking about getting one again, but I am curious to see if anyone has had a negative experience.

I don't forsee any problem with sps nipping, but just don't plan on keeping it with clams. :biggrin:

My flame nips at small polyps. He has never damaged any corals, but all corals with small polyps only extend at night

If you have enough SPS its attension won't be focused on one coral alone, so it should really cause too much damage.

Forgot about that possibility. I just recently tore my 150 apart to catch a bicolor blenny because he had a fetish for one clam. I don't even want to chance a posibility like that again.

I had a flame in my SPS tank for almost 2 years and never had a problem with it.
