In my 65g I have/...
2 B/W Oc. Clowns
C. argi dwarf angel
Possum Wrasse
Chalk Bass
Yellow Wrasse
Fathead/Sunburst Anthias...
everything gets along well and has their own space. I have yet to see the angel pick or even look at anything (mixed reef)

You like the angels it seems so I would go with one of those, just know it may nip some corals.

Why the anti-CBS sentiments? Just wondering. I've got a CBS and think he's great. Love his size and he's very inquisitive. Never really seen aggression toward any fish or my cleaner shrimp.

I would do a Caribbean biotype 46 gallon tank. Argi dwarf angel, royal gramma or two, neon gobies, greenbanded gobies, maybe a swissguard.

That would be a cool tank.

[tcmfish]

Cherub angel its latin name is Centropyge argi, many people refer to it as an argi, cherub, or pygmy angel.

 

[jay02483]

It is in the genus Liopropoma. It was one of the fish I originally recommended. They are on the expensive side, but are interesting cryptic fish. He is talking about Liopropoma rubre.
