So basicly a short and sweet question, what are peoples experiences with dwarf angels and tridacnas?
Is there any type that tends to be worse and for that matter, less risky?

I do ofcourse know that any fish potentially can become a clam-eater, but i figure if im set on keeping a dwarf and clams i might aswell use the best odds possible ;)
 
My Coral Beauty leaves my clams alone. I had a Cherub and it nipped my clams and had to be re-homed. Potters are reported to be more clam friendly but it really depends on the individual fish.
 
My flameback mostly leaves my derasa alone. I see him occasionally nip the edges, but haven't noticed and damage to the mantle. I do fully expect to see the clam crush him one day for being a jerk.
 
I have new potters, about 5 weeks now, eats great, so far so good.....
