I hope this is allowed : ) if not please let me know.

My wife and I were out and saw this aquarium and lobed this orange multi color fish. I looked on live aquaria and couldn't figure out what breed it was. Looks like a dwarf angel but I couldn't find a match to save my life. Still very new to the hobby so I'm far from an expert at identifying species :)
 
I'm pretty embarrassed now. I skimmed right over the flame angel because the coloring was slightly off. I looked again after you both said that and I believe you're right. What a shame. We're wanting to add coral and already have one questionable-with-reef fish :( hate to add another and increase the risk!

Thanks a bunch for your input!
 
Yeah, definitely a Flame Angel....they can go ether way as far as coral compatible. I unfortunately have tried two different ones and had to remove them both :-(
