look I know most large angelfish are not deemed reef safe or if they are it is with caution, I also know that every fish is different and one that may be a model citizen in one tank might be a monster in another, with that being said tell me your thoughts on what you think are reef safe angels, preferably non pygmy species
 
The best suited "reef safe" angels are the ones from the the genicanthus family. They are not the flashiest of angels but are active and can be kept in pairs or even trios. Some members on here have multiple species of them with no fighting, the only thing with that, is there will be one dominant male that will force any other males back to females. This doesn't always happen but is common.
