been doing a lot of research but still haven't found my answer,
OK I read there reef safe but with caution so what are the cautions
read they are semi aggressive but if added last they are more calm and wont pick on less aggressive smaller fish is this true
I'm considering trading out a my fish that all they do is hide meaning my 3 bangie cardnails
and 3 chromis , for a more active fish , and leaving my clarkie ,dotty back and mandarin
 
Cautions are that they nip at corals and can kill them. They are agressive with other angels, generally peaceful with other fish. That dotty might cause problems
 
any particular coral they nip at ,
I'm mostly into the zoas
don't want to cause issues with my dotty since he mellowed out finally , have to look into that a bit more
main reason was looking at flame angel was they stay fairly small ,
 
I have two angels in my tank and they've left my corals alone so far. They spend the day grazing on rocks and chilling. I tried to feed them brine every other day. I'm pretty sure if you keep them full they'll leave your coral alone.
