This is a hard one but I’m going French, the male masked swallowtails are nice but the French has such a nice colour pallet that makes them stand out.

That’s actually a really good point! You can have a Masked in a reef but not a French!
You can have a French angel in a reef but they are heavily restricting with coral.

Out of curiosity, what coral won't a French angel usually eat?
A lot of your Euphyllia and Fymbriaphyllia are left alone as they have a potent sting. Some softies can also be kept with them from what I remember.

Okay, I’ve never owned one, and LiveAquaria lists them as not reef safe, so I just assumed that meant for all coral. It’s good to know that their fine with a few types!

This is hard but I break for the Masked Swallowtail.
