    not all coral beautys will eat corals. ive had one for a year, plus a flame angel and neither have done any nipping. i agree they do come with caution tho. best of luck and cool addition

    all dwarfs come with that caution , and i know some members here have had problems. hopefully yours behaves well for you like mine do. just give it a good scolding and all will be fine. :)

    All Angels are 50/50, just dont get too attached to it in case you have to get him out.
