Emperor angel in a reef?

[Sfgiants55]

Someone on my local forum has a baby one (2in) to trade! He is eating pellets and is healthy. I was wondering if I could have him in a mixed reef with mostly polyps and lps with just a few sps? If I keep him well fed will he go after the coral? Thanks!

He might eat McDonald....but when you are that close to Ruth Christ....you are bound to eat some.

Really depends on what size tank you plan on housing him. They need plenty of room.

He will have a feast on lps and zoas.

Yes, but atleast it will be well fed.

+1. It's not if, but when. It just matters if your system is big enough to handle a coral grazer or not.

With that being said, what size is your display?

Probably not a good idea
