Flame Angel in 300g mixed reef?

gsiegel · 01/20/2019, 04:44 PM

I have a 300g mixed reef with several fish including a coral beauty for about 4 years and a goldflake angel. My coral consists of LPS hammers and torches, war corals, an echinata, cyphastria, and mushrooms.

My fish are well fed and no issues with the other 2 angels picking.

I saw a STUNNING large flame angel (nicest coloration and big) that I am inclined to add to the tank. Angel experts - 1) what are your thoughts with the current angels in a 300g tank and 2) thoughts/concerns about adding to the tank with the coral I have (no acans, zoas, brains, fleshy coral)?

Thx

I would do it. Flames are great, and you have more than enough tank volume to support.

Thanks-will likely pull the trigger. all other feedback pro or con appreciated.
With the coral I have I am not expecting a problem but interested to know other experiences.
This is the nicest looking flame angel I have seen.
