Cherub Angelfish What coral do they eat?

[The_ReefB0y_FOX24]

I was wondering... what types of coral the Cherub will go after?

Every angel will have different preferences (usually based on what you have in the tank). Fleshy lps seems to be the most common favorite as well as some sps.
My coral beauty likes my gorgnian and and my acan.

So its just hit or miss?

That’s part of it. It also depends on tank size, how much it’s fed, how many corals are present, and other factors. A well fed angel with lots of space to move around (and sample from) is less likely to eat corals.

I have both Pigmy Cherub Angel and Flame Angel in my mixed Reef.
I am lucky so far and I haven't noticed them nipping on anything. However I do lot of feeding with variety of foods.
They ate beautiful but very mean toward other smaller fishes.

Hit or miss! My.cherub was great for 4 months then it started picking at all my acros keeping a few shut. I rehomed it.

I have a cherub angel fish and he defenitoly nibs my corals, so far nothing to worry he eats I think some mucus but it never chops a piece!

I’ve had several cherubs over the years. One for 3 years, one for 7 years, and currently a young pair. None have ever been an issue with any of my corals, that said, I am more focused on fish than corals, so I can tolerate some minor nipping.
