Have a full tank shot? People always assume that number and size are the most important qualifiers.

Not much room

Not much room

Plenty of places to sleep and hide though which is the big thing. My flame angel is a little bit of a bully but hasn't touched my coral if it helps.

 

[muggle0981]

I know its a crapshoot if they touch corals or not

Everything meshes fine right now-just so t wanna regret an addition

Tank

Going by flames love to hangout in rocks I’d say it would be fine :)

Also, get a build thread going! I want to see more of this tank and the softies that reside in it.

You have a great tank. It looks like mostly softies which I don’t think a flame angel would bother. But you have some nice LPS that I think would eventually get munched on. I would not add a flame angel to that tank. Just my opinion. Good luck either way.

 

[muggle0981]

Yup-kinda where my head is at-would hate to lose something from a muncher

I think my flame angel was nipping at my sticks so I pulled it and added it to my 180 mixed reef and it has been fine. Mine spends all day cruising around in the rocks. Much of the time I don't even see it. It really adds a nice splash of color.
You can see it a few times in this amateurish video :face-with-hand-over-mouth:


On a side note if you go one more step and select insert thumbnail or full image your photos will appear in the thread and folks won't have to wait for them to load before being able to view them.;)

EDIT: I don't see much chance of removing a flame angel from your tank unless you get lucky with a trap so I understand your hesitation.
