Have seen this touted as a "reef safe" dwarf angel. Anyone have any experience with them. I've tried a dwarf before and it didn't end well (Flameback that was great for 8 months and then discovered acans). Appreciate any incite you could share.
 
I would venture to guess no, as I have yet to hear of any Centropyge that is %100 reef safe. Granted this is the first time I have seen this fish so if you happen to discover otherwise I would love to know as that's a gorgeous animal!
 
Colini is a pretty cryptic species and I have found the cryptic species to be more likely to nip.
 
Thanks TJ! If it was on the other end of the scale I might take a chance but with that info I think I'll pass. Room for more wrasses!
