The reason I can't have LPS, my Pygoplites diacanthus - named 'Apple' by my two year old son because the green Lobo it ate looked like an apple

Wow, and nice butterflies too.....i think butterflies should get their own thread too (hint hint)

I agree. I love butterfly's but then again I love all types of saltwater fish. I need a bigger tank!

In large tanks it can work, especially if they are acquired as small specimens.

The entire Genicanthus genus is reef safe. Flame and coral beauties may nip, but are less likely than many of the other dwarf species. Emperor and scribbled angels have been successfully kept in large sps systems.

Biota captive bred coral beauties do well with corals. They are also more peaceful than wild caught specimens and have awesome colors too.

Is there an dwarf angel fish that isn't aggressive ? I don't want the flame or coral beauty. Want something different this time.

Multi colored or venustus

I had both, and they were standard angels in terms of aggressiveness. Add angels last, especially if you have peaceful fish. Also depends on the size of your tank.

The venustus was nicer and would only make passing threats, and not chase.
