My experience with angels in general and flame angel in particular , has been they are well behaved with corals, but not with clams. Currently I have a flame angel in one 185 gallon tank, and in a different tank of the same size a Multicolored Angel.
I have had several different flame angels over 40 years of keeping salt water aquariums. I have experienced upto 2 years of keeping clams and flame angel together with no problems. Then one day the flame will start to pick pick at the clam. More out of boredom I think. Just to make the clam flinch. I quit trying to keep together after that.
( I know other people will have disagreements with what I say next, but I no longer house, angels of the same genus together. Even managing this for a few years is not good enough, in my opinion , considering how well we keep fish now.
So no two dwarves in same tank, etc.
The 185 gallon mentioned above with flame angel also contains a Black Velvet Angel, and a Bandit Angel.
It’s office counterpoint contains the Multicolor Dwarf Angel and A Majestic Angel.)
