Bicolor angel in reef?

[Sexytang]

I’ve read that angel fish are a bad idea for reef because they like to eat corals anyone has success with bicolor angel not messing with there corals I have a 36g fully stocked with corals and only 1 maroon clown.

Very nice tank. You could always try the fish with a re-home plan if it doesn't fit in with your beautiful corals.
Here's a great article from Advanced Aquarist magazine on this topic. https://www.advancedaquarist.com/2003/10/fish

I’ve had one in my mixed reef for 3 years. He does occasionally nip at the corals, but has never done much damage to destroy one. I also keep my fish fat and happy so that could play a factor.

I’ve never seen him pick at my soft coral/euphillia, but he does often pick at my gorgonian

I have the worst luck with them, but I think one of the coolest smaller angels. They are labeled “with caution” on La. I say try, like BigG said you could always keep an eye on him, but do have an exit plan if he doesn’t work out.

Keep us updated, I may try one more time and then quit if it doesn’t work before I make them extinct singlehanded

Starki damsel makes a great substitute for a bicolor angel and would be a better fit for your tank

Nice looking tank, but with the yellow tang in there, in wouldn’t add the angel, the tang may attack it

You should be fine, just rehome it if it starts munching on corals

I have a bicolor, and a coral beauty, and while I’ve never seen them nip anything. I have NO PE on my sps. But they are growing so it’s not a total loss and I love the fish.
