Should i add a flame angel as my 4th and final fish?

  1. No, i wouldn't risk it with the corals.

    i love the flame angel also, i like it a lot more than the coral beauty. If it was a decision between the wrasse and the angel, i would go with wrasse because it doesnt have the dangers that the angel does. if the angel didnt have issues with coral nipping, i would go for it.

    I'm curious about something, where are you nitrate levels at, and are they stable now? I've heard that they will most likely swing for the 1st year is the reason that I am asking.

    I was surprised to see that the nitrate actually went DOWN after adding the bangaii! I guess the system is used to having 3 fish.
