[quote=Juicy;567711]I have a 280 gallon somewhat reef tank, by somewhat I mean I have a few corals that have survived over the years but no where near what the majority of you have. I really enjoy angel fish and am looking at getting some of the larger ones. I have seen some threads and other pictures where beautiful reef tanks house some large angel fish and they seem to have no problems with the fish eating everything. I guess my question is have any of you housed large angles with coral? If so have you had any luck? and which ones would you recommend? Oh and what kind of coral do they eat or avoid?
Thanks.[/Q

This is part 1 of a 2 part discussion on angelfish by a very experienced reefer.
Hope this helps you decide which are the best for your tank, Juicy.

IME, i've had Emperor, Regal, Majestic, Asfur, Flame, and Flameback. The large angels seem to not care for SPS, never did any damage. They love zoas/palys, and meaty corals. Dwarfe angels on the other hand were a constant bothersome to SPS, and nipped at pratically every corals in the tank. I now keep mainly sps with plantivors but soon to regal and majestic. I would never place a dwarf angel in a reef again.
