Angels that can handle all coral

I'm very interested in angel fish, so I'd like to do mostly an angel tank with the occasional other compatible fish as well. My question is what large and dwarf angels can live with each other and not eat all my coral. I plan on doing a wide range of LPS, SPS, softies.
Every time I'm interested in an angel I read that "oh dont do zoas" or similar things. I love the emperor angel and I love zoas....dang. haha

Is this a smart idea to do a lot of different angels or should I abandon that notion? I was thinking 2-3 large and 2-3 dwarf?

dwarf:
Potters
Flame

Large:
Emperor looks like it got denied due to coral eating
Queen
Annularis
Regal

Looking to add a couple (1-2) reef safe trigger's as well. Would they be OK with angels?

A emperor, Queen and annularis cannot coexist in a 155g without serious aggression issues. Non of which are reefsafe. Regals a very challenging, potters can be difficult too. Genicanthus Angels are the only ones considered 100% reefsafe. Males don't ship well just keep in mind
 
The holocanthus and pomacanthus are out, but maybe another genus. I've had a flagfin angel in a reef for near a decade and he's a model citizen. Also a black spot genicanthus in there and I have a regal in qt growing large enough to join the party.
 
Lamarck's are totally reef safe. mine doesn't go near my coral, but became the bully of the tank.
