So my tank is going to hit the one year mark next month and I want to make the final addition to the tank.
I saw a Cherub Angelfish about an 1” in length at my LFS and he has been there for about two months and has done great. He is in a FOWLR tank there and gets along great with the other fish.
I have a 10 gallon but I will get a 30 gallon for him to be put in there by the end of this year. But my question to you is will he be ok with these animals.
1 Ocellaris Clown 1.25”
1 Neon Damsel 1.75”
4 Blue legged hermit crabs
2 Astrea snails
1 Cerith snail
1 Maxima clam 2.5”
1 Rainbow BTA
LPS corals
SPS corals
and
Soft corals

I feed every 2 days, I’ve got a hang on the back refugium, and I run the 35 gallon rated chemi-pure blue package in my 30 gallon rated filter.
It will be Quarantined for 3-4 weeks
 
There aren't any angels that will go into any tank that small. They all need large systems and I'm not known of any that are reef safe. The next step down are dwarf angels, and I wouldn't put them in anything smaller than a 55...species depending here...and most aren't reef safe and the others are with caution.
If the tank is a 10 gallon, I'd say it is capped out at a clown and a damsel.
