I have 2 queen angels, 2 french angels, and a butterfly, i was thinking of getting some coral but im scared theyre gonna eat it. Is there any type they wont get to? Im pretty new to this
 
I don't know of any specifics, hopefully someone else can chime in, but you could always try some inexpensive corals like xenia, fingers, GSP, etc to "test the waters," no pun intended. They'll likely nip them, but can't hurt to try.
 
With my experience you will be hard pressed to be able to keep corals with those guys. I've had angels and butterflies in my 300 and they all developed a taste for coral. They didn't eat softies but LPS and sps was a meal. Just my experience
