Which corals could I keep with a Lemonpeel Angelfish, since many say they are "with caution" reef safe? Also, the corals must be able to live under 15-20x flow rate and 260w of PC lights.
Thanks you all for the info! :)

They are hit-or-miss, but are most likely to much on clams and large-polyped corals, as far as I can tell. You could try soft corals and see how it goes. Most soft corals should be fine in that setup.

lemonpeels are hit or miss. some are model citezsens some are not. some start out great and after a while turn on you.

i kept a coral beuty angel with leathers, hammer coral, and anemone with no problem. The only thing he nipped was at the live rock. I think lemonpeels have a similar temperment as do all of the dwarf angels. I would rate the risk on a scale of 1-10 a 3.

IME lemonpeels are far more likely than most dwarf angels to pick at corals. In fact, they are notorious for it.
Take a look here for more info:

so basically its a chance thing that I should not bet on?
Instead of a lemonpeel angel (which is bright yellow), what other reef safe fish is their that can obtain those bright electric yellow colors? Since I am going to keep a pair of percs (orange) and I probably going to find a blue fish and a yellow fish (what good blue fish and yellow fish would you recommend in a 55g tank with corals?).
THANKS!!!
