Flame Angelfish

[jerry11901]

Hallo. I wan to ad the flame Angelfish to my mixed tank (need some red fish).But I read that they nip at stony and soft corals. Do they coz a lot of damage or if I feed it good there will be no problems?

It could eat coral no matter what you do. They can pick on clams too. Flames are better than some, but it is a 50/50 bet. I would not do it unless you can easily catch it.

flames are 50/50 as jda said, luckily mine has yet to pick on a coral or even clam yet! have had her for 5+ years too

Thank you guys .I decided not to buy Flame Angelfish .What red fish do you recommend for my mixed tank? I need more red ...

If you don't have any shrimp you can probably add a flame hawkfish.

some flasher/fairy wrasse have alot of red on them.

How big of a tank?

Carpenters wrasse trio would be nice (m, f, f). Cheap too. Totally reef safe, but can be jumpers so a canopy is a good idea.

Tomato clownfish is red, if you don't already have a clown.

Btw I also have problem finding a red fish, so does a green one.
