    Definately not saying that it can't be done. I did it for 8 months with a flame angel. It never touched anything, but I don't want this guy buying an Angel based on my experience only to be disappointed in the end.

    Im still contemplating adding another flame angel. I pulled it off once, but if it does nip I dont want to go through the process of catching the little guy.

    well i dont think a little nip here or there is too bad as long as he isnt full on eating it. but i also have heard that particularly larger angels pick at coral not so much the dwarfs. just what ive heard. i havent had one pick on my coral as long as it was well fed.

    In a 115 you could easily have a few flasher wrasses (if you have a top on your tank). A male & a couple of females. Very colorful and active.

    my lemon destroyed my candycane and constantly picked at my zoas and my toadstool every now and then. so i wont chance another angel.

    no cover on my tank but did think about getting a male & female flasher. those are cool fish

    You'll definitely need a top for the flashers. The male will skim the top a lot when he's showing off.
