coral beauty or flame?

[Megatrev62]

Could some one tell me if they had to go with either of these fish for being less nippy at corals which would you choose? Need a few quick relpies on this as there are 2 at the store and I have to decide soon. Thanks alot.

Softy and zoas at present and small cany cane. Thanks

I'm picking up one or the other regardless. Have 2 hours to go. Anyone?

better luck with the coral beuty in my experience... two of the flames ive owned have been pickers.... but not tooo bad... my CB has never touched any LPS or SPS..

I'll take the flame. not good reason but i just like their color more.

I'm going with the Coral Beauty mostly because it seems that every tank I see has a Flame Angel in it, I just wanted to be a bit different.

Thanks for reponses as I need them fast. I love the look of both fish but the coral beauty is nice and fat. Also I really wanted to know what you guys thought since this is a hasty decision. FWIW the LFS figures the coral beauty would be a better candidate.

It is going to be a crap shoot -- my coral beauty LOVES fleshy LPS, I won't even attempt to keep it anymore.

I currently have both fish, and IME, they are equally as bad. With any dwarf angel, count on it nipping, and be happy if it doesn't.

If it is a toss up, consider taking the one that looks healthier and is eating better.
