    I have a bi-colored angel that books & other reefers including LFS state are NOT reef safe. I have not had a single issue with him or her. (not sure on gender lol...) I have had it since I started my 29gal. Almost 2 years now.

    I didn't see an option for mine was an angel (get it??) for 3 or 4 years and then overnight developed a taste for coral. I switched him to a different tank and never had any more problems.

    I have a female Bellus angel that I have had now for 2 years. BEAUTIFUL FISH! We keep her well fed and MOST of the time she ignores the corals. However recently I have seen her nip at my acans, so I am watching her very closely!

    I will say I did something stupid about a year ago. I was at a frag swap and found this awesome spiderman sponge. So I bought it. (UMMM.....SPONGE) She left it alone for couple months and then one day it was gone! I was trying to figure out what happened to it when it dawned on me! OOPPS!
