Bicolor Angel and corals

[Jeremiah]

Hi all,

My fish lady and mentor in the hobby, has gotten in some nice, small bicolor that are feeding good.
I would like to get one for our 75gal but am concerned they might eat some of our corals.
What are some corals they are known not to eat, maybe mushrooms? Other softies?

Please share your exprience with this fish and corals, I know that each fish is different and that two fish can have different appetites but would like to hear your experience with this fish.

Thanks for the help!

I had two angels and neither were a bicolor but they wrecked my reef. I had to tear the tank down to get them. They destroyed all or part of a hammer coral, Torch coral, frogspawn and some yellow polyps. Basically your fleshy corals.

We had just about as bad a time with a half black. No more angels in reefs for me.
