Red Stripe Angelfish (Eibl's, Eibl's Pygmy, Orangelined)

[ekean45]

Any suggestions of compatible fish with a Red Stripe Angel (Eibl's Angelfish, Eibl's Pygmy Angelfish, Orangelined Angelfish, Blacktail Angelfish, and Eibl's Dwarf Angel) for a fish/invert tank? Not concerned with coral. 90 gallon tank.

Thanks!

Wrasses would be good. Totally different shape. My Coral Beauty sure doesn't bother my Melanurus or Leopard Wrasse. One Spot Foxface could work, it has a slender profile like the Dwarf Angels do, but I don't know of many Dwarf Angels that want to take on their venomous spines. When I first introduced my One Spot to my tank my Coral Beauty tried to do an establishment of pecking order and my One Spot simply Flexed it's spines and the CB turned tail and went the other way. Never had a problem since and they even share the same long cave at night. A Small Tang (ie Kole, Tomini) might work and it's possible a small butterflyfish (ie Spotband) would work.
