This is a Rescue, give away. He said it’s a Whitetail Pygmy Angel fish, but it’s all blue. Think it’s a Centropyge deborae, or some other Angel???
 
Sorry, I should’ve put a Question mark in the title. I don’t have the Angelfish. It’s in a Sump, the owner couldn’t get a good picture. I think it maybe a Keyhole Angel, with a small “Keyhole.”
 
Well, I do have a tibicen and multicolor in a 65g, and it's mostly fine, although the multicolor is definitely bossy and there's a strict hierarchy at play. I do have an aquascape maze in the tank, with frequent feedings and lots of softies to hide behind, so territorial disputes are at a minimum.

You'll find many other threads in here with even more daring stockings, such as keeping four or five centropyge species in one tank; you should read through a few of them.
 
I think 4-5 is doable in a tank 6’ and up if added simultaneously / close to each other and with some luck. Granted one member has an 8’ 300, but he managed to have the following combo:

Coral Beauty
Flame
Multicolor
Potter’s
Bicolor

Along with an Indian Ocean Regal and a Goldflake.
