Flame Angel

Will a flame angel nip at zoo's?

Some will, some won't...some do, some don't.

It's a crapshoot.

I have one that doesn't... And one of the members of our local reef club has one that doesn't... But I've heard some do... lol They're pretty fish though... Just make sure you can catch them if need be!!!

Anyone else?

I have a large Flame Angel, does fine with my tank. BUT I keep her VERY well fed to not tempt fate too much...

I have had better luck with multi colored angels than flames. For some reason, every flame I have had over the last 12 years nipped at polyps or zoas.

My flame pecks at Christmas tree worms. One day he pecked at my crocea clams all day long, but hasn't done it since. He's never bothered any of my zoanthids.

I agree with jessiesgrrl. If kept well fed they shouldn't bother any coral.......but once they get the taste of them its time to get the angel out of the tank.

I think there is some mathmatic probablility with them which can be summed up to:
More $ spent on zoas = More likely flame angel will crave an expensive meal one night

I had one pick on my maxima.
