Is a flame angel reef safe?

90% of the time they are safe. We have them with LPS & zoas at the store with no problem.

Just like people, there are always those certain few that ruin it for everyone.

 

I bought one about a year and a half ago from ACC, no problems in my reef. An added benefit is when my 6 line wrasse gets a little too cocky, the flame angel can be depended on to put it in its place, and break up any potential violence.

 

totally

 

Craig said it. Usually good but theres always a bad egg in the batch. Mines been fine for years.

 

I know they can be aggressive

 

Im sure its ok w shrimp, but most centropyge like to "taste" corals.

 

They need tons of swimming room and strong current to stay healthy, hard to mimic in captivity.
