And last but certainly not least.

Thanks. This would be one of the top fives for me. Still on the fence as to what will go with the black tang.

Slice & Dice
Update. Unfortunately my Majestic Angel went on a LPS feeding frenzy over Christmas :sad:. He was removed today. It was a hard decision as I sat on the fence between leaving him in there, but in the end I couldn't take a larger hit $ wise from what he already snacked on. Another one may work well as there is one in our display tank at the store who has never picked on anything. I just figured I would let you know mine rebelled. He did have excellent taste in corals....
I have an Interrupta who is a perfect fish. Swallowtail who is perfect. I HAD 2 bluelines for over a year than they started to tear up one of my clams so they had to go bye bye
I have an fisheri/resplenda hybrid that has also taken a liking to acans and chalices. I am an angelfish person and would be wiling to try almost anything but my tanks is mostly SPS.
Almost forgot about my joc pair they were pretty good also just would sample an SPS every now and than.

I have a Pomacanthus navarchus in my tank. I would say he is going on 5" in my 125g. He is funny. Doesnt even eat all sponges.
He definitely picks - but there have been very few things he has picked at to the point where you would notice. Only things he has damaged are:
Some acans (only reefhab ones?)
Fungia
Palys
And that is really it.

Great thread. I just set up my 180 to be mainly fish only BUT with some softies including mushrooms, leathers etc. Thinking some more noxious corals may deter them. Looking to add a large angel. Thinking either a majestic, emporer or a blue faced. Would love to continue to hear some experiences with larger angels and even more so with the three I listed. I really like the blue faced and is probably top of the list, the majestic is a close second!

I have a Lamarks Angel in my 120 and it does just fine with everything. Every once in a while I see it nip at a clam but it doesn't actually bite them and they don't seem stressed over it.

Wrasses, Angels, & Tangs, Oh My!
We've had our Regal for about 3 years. She will taste-test any new coral and occasionally nips at SPS, but doesn't do any damage.

I want to find a swallow tail but locally that may prove difficult-
Sorry to read about the majestic-I want an angel as well but share your fears-I've had the Bellus before she worked out nicely

Cool. Thanks for keeping this thread alive. Still on the fence on what to add to my 240 with 3 tangs (maybe more tangs, ha ha), but the regal is the front runner.
