Coral is not a problem with Harlequin Tusk. They are large wrasse, fierce looking but mellow. They do have small fishes and mobile invertebrates on the menu like CUC and small reef fishes and ornamental shrimp

Anthias for me too. Realizing they need to be fed at least 2-3x per day, tried that but difficult to fit into my schedule. So they soon disappeared a few days after I got them. Also would like
a blue-face angel, but with a mixed reef, angels are risky.

Emperor and Queen are great species as I have them. Regals aren't very hardy. If you were to get them try adding all at the same time as the more dominant angel will kill the new one.
