It really depends, we need more information if we are going to be able to help you. How big is this tank? Also, what are your nitrate and phosphate levels currently at?

Yeah, we're gonna need to know your tank size, filtration/sump, nutrient levels. All can be factors regarding bio load and stock.

Can't tell tank size with that picture and that is a big factor.
Is that a Bicolor Chromis or some kind of other Damsel? Hard to tell from that pic, but it looks like it might be a Chromis, which tend to not be as aggressive.

I do agree that the damsel does look like a black and white chromis.
Also, you should be ok with a few more fish for a 50g, just stock slowly. Do you have any ideas in mind?

No tang or angel will fit in that tank IMO. Cardinals are fine though. I like banggais

IMO he can get away with 1 dwarf angel. +1 on the bangais though.
I wouldn't put even a smaller tang in anything smaller than a 75.

They can nip but with angels it's a hit or miss. At the pet shop I work at, we just make sure that the angel is getting a balanced diet. We feed them a variety of foods but make sure to include a lot of veggies, seaweed, spirulina as well as meaty foods. We haven't seen any damage to our corals, we have a lemon peel in a display tank and even a regal angel in our coral tank.
