2 dwarf angels?

I am trying to plan a stocking list and really want 2 dwarf angels. I was wondering what your guys experience with it was and what you yould recommend. The four that I am intrested in are:
1) Potter Angel
2)Lemon Peel Angel
3) Coral beauty
4) Flame Angel
Which 2 could be put together or have you guys had experince with? Which angels wouldnt you mix with another?

90 Gallon Tank
100 lbs of live rock
Thanks!

 

I don't know about angels with each other. If you want a reef though, I can tell you that no angel is going to be guaranteed reef safe. It's rolling the dice on whether they'll nip. Some are more likely than others, but all have it in them.

 

I'd be careful having two dwarfs in a 90. I know some people do with little or no problems, but I can tell you that my dwarf angel wouldn't let another angel stay alive in my 90 gallons for 5 minutes. It would be a blood bath.

I'm not sure about the other angels on your list, but I've read flame angels are quite aggressive.

 

It is possible two have two Angels but you "must" buy them at the same time.

 

my flame angel killed a bi colour that was in a 4 foot tank

 

I would not keep two dwarf angels in one tank. Especially the flame angel can be very aggressive. But if you still decide to do so, then make sure that you add them at once, otherwise one will already establish his territory and that can be detrimemtal.

 

I added a flame angel and a lemonpeel at the same time to my reef tank and all is well with them.

They never fight, the flame picks at the rocks and walls all day along with the lemonpeel. Sometimes my lemonpeel nips at my kenya tree but that does not bother me in the least!

 

Usually, it's not a good idea except in larger tanks. Angels generally do not get along well with each in home aquariums. There are people who keep two dwarf angels in a tank but IMO and IME, that's the exception. All the lfs I know of do not keep dwarf angels together in one tank b/c they will fight and most likely one will die. Adding them together does seem to help, but in the end, it depends on the individual fish.

As to the angels you are interested in, Potters angels are generally harder to care for. I don't know if they just don't ship well or are collected poorly. Lemon peel angels are very aggressive and are very prone to nipping at corals and clams. Coral Beautys and Flames are generally regarded as the most reef safe dwarf angel, except for the species that is actually considered "reef" safe, which the name eludes me now. I have a CB and love him, and so far, he's been good.

 

It is really luck of the draw, on my first tank 9+ years ago I had a 55 gallon with a ton of LR (hiding places). Not knowing what I was doing I purchased a Flameback and a Flame angel. I added both at the sametime and they live without fighting for 2+ years before I took down the tank. The Flame would chase the Flameback if he ever ventured to the right side of the tank but that was about the extent of it, both would feed without issue.

I know it is not recommended but if you add at the sametime you may be ok but you have to be prepared to remove one if they fight or be ok with one being killed. Hard choice but I understand why you want two they are awesome.

Good luck!

 

LIke I said you can keep to Angels in the same tank id introduced at once. Try a Yellow Angel and Coral Beauty. The Yellow Angel is least likely to nip at coral.
