any reef safe angels
I know some one with a coral beauty in a tank with all linds of coral incluing Xenia

I have montipora millipora birdsnest Xenia

mushrooms LT anemone ricordea zoanthids Green star polyps

So would any angel be most likey of for shure safe and not eat all my Xenia
 
None will be 100% reef safe--all species may nip corals. However, it's a matter of individual preference. I have a bicolor that has been in my reef for 5 years now, with no problems. He's in with xenia, mushrooms, gorgonians, zoos, a few leathers, a few different types of polyps, lots of sponges, a shaghetti leather and serveral colts.
 
Orion I'm not even going to ask what a "shaghetti" coral is :laugh: .... good one!

I've read the exact same thing Orion said about pretty much every pygmy angel. My favorite angel (pygmy or not) is the flame angel, and I've seen them in reef tanks. You just never know.
 
I haven't had any real problems out of my pygmy. If it does take a nip now and then it's not enough to notice or really hurt anything. Of course that doesn't mean that tommorow he won't figure out that he's living in a fillet mignon factory :).
 
I had a coral beauty once in my reef tank, and it never bothered my corals, but it did harass my turbo snails a lot and pulled off their tentacles.
 
I have a little cherub angel in my reef tank...no probs with any of the softies or the zoos, or mushrooms...but he sure is a little bully occasionally...maybe spirited would be a better choice of words..
