Angel fish advice

Now that I have your attention I would like some info on hardiness, care, and compatibility of an adult 5" blue face angel or an emperor angel 6". We have a 125 gallon now with a yellow tang, jawfish, 3 damsels, clarki clown, and a scooter blenney. I am in total awe with these fish. I only of coarse want one or the other in my tank. I know they get huge and will most likely upgrade my 125 to a 265 in the future to accommodate. Right now I am just curious as to the above. TIA

Of the two, the blueface would most likely make the better choice as far as hardiness. The Imperator can often be a challenge to acclimate to tank life. One thing to note though, is any large growing angel will nip corals relentlessly which makes them a very poor choice for a reef tank. Your profile states the tank is reef so I would suggest not adding these types of fish. If you stick to an FOWLR, you should be fine.

Cheers
Steve
