I got a full sps tank with an african flameback in it. Can any of dwarf or large angels be kept with an african flameback in 100g ?
 
I have one too, it's amazing!
When I got it I allredy had a C.bisbinosus in the tank. The C.acanthops came at the same time with C.bicolor, and they all got along nicely...
Recently I added a Pomacanthus navarcus, and still no problem.
My tank is much bigger than yours, but the angels all hang together and haven't had any aggression towards each other.
I'm planning to add a C.potteri and C.loricula soon...
IMO if you want to add another angel, try to pick one that is as different in color as possible. C.bicolor might be a good choise?

Thanks for reply. I am planning to add coral beauty or flame angel. Their colors are different.
 
I had an AF and added a flame to my tank. It took two maybe three days of working things out and after that they ignored one another and swam together.
Sadly both fish went MIA over the span of a month and I have not tried to repeat the stocking again but I would.

What was your tank size?
 
It is a 37 corner tank. I knew at that size it may have been a concern and if it had been I would have set my 95 up to accomodate the fish. I think one reason why there wasn't any aggression was I had my rock work stacked so that the fish would swim in and out of it and if there was anything going on, it would allow the flame to swim away and be hidden from the AF and then return.

Again during the first two or three days the AF would chase the F around and put it in a corner. The F hung out behind my sea swirl and by day 4 it was swimming around the tank. By the end of the first week the AF chased the F once maybe twice during feeding and by day 10 all chasing was gone and they would swim together picking on the rockwork.
