    if a dwarf angel is wanted id recommend knocking one of the above off....its a lot on the tank and the fish will be a little crammed and there isnt much space to claim territory so its pushing

    it would probably be fairly managable with 2 chromis, a blenny, clown, mandarin(hard to keep fed try to find an ORA one or another one one prepared foods) try these out first and then decide if you can add the bangai but what i listed seems pretty solid

    yeah I will see how my tank handles the bioload before adding the bangai, I know too much ammonia could kill my corals, and fish to haha

    are you running a sump? i highly recommend on it as it will increase total water volume and make it a much easier task to control your bioload also what kind of skimmer etc?

    I've thought about it but dont they get large? I thought they stayed small but a few people say 1 foot haha. Also i have heard that angels love to munch on corals?
