Hi everyone
I have a massive long tentacle anemone around 10 inches across hosting a pair of bullet hole clownfish . That’s the only thing in the tank other than fish and cuc . My question is can I add a flame angel with it ? My clownfish are quite protective of it but recently I added a sohal tang ( he is really friendly ) but whenever he gets close they no longer shoo him or other fish away so I’m scared my clowns will not protect their nem from an angel .
any help would be appreciated
 
Assuming your tank is large enough for a dwarf angelfish, probably. I have 7 bubbletip and condi anemones in my 160-gallon with 2 dwarf and 2 regular angelfish. I have a pair of mocha clownfish that regularly host 2-3 of the anemones, and the little buggers pretty much spend 24/7 in there.

I think the flame angel will probably steer clear of your anemone. The only time my dwarf angels spend any time near one of my anemones is at night in a cave where they sleep with 2 of the smaller ones.
