I saw quite a few P.imperator in reefs with Euphyllias.
Never had any problem.
So you have quite a good chance.
It doesnt mean to say that your particular specimen wont think Euphyllia is lunch.

This is a great thread as I'm debating whether to take the chance with a large angel in my soon to be 240. I know I"m safe with the Genicanthus Sp. angels, but I'd love to have a large angel. I plan to have a mixture of all corals, but mostly LPS and softies. I'll be following this thread to see what other people's experiences are with the large Angels!

yeah keep the advice coming. I can't aford a conspiculatus angel yet and even if I did Have the money the wife would kill me when I told her the price. Plus if anything were to good bad in the tank and I happen to lose that fish I would have to kill my self and that wouldn't be a good thing lol.
I think what I will try sdoing is adding a smaller adult queen and see how it works other wise idk what other large ones I like. The impoertor is nice but it doesn't jump at me you know what I mean?

Which LPS would most likely be vulnerable. On another note what have been peoples experience with the goldflake angels?
Acans and blasto's is mainly what i hear large angels going after.
Lobo's, favia, micromussa would be considered more of a risk like the above i mentioned.
The meaty type lps corals is what they will have a greater risk with.
Torch, frogspawn, hammers and platecorals are pretty safe because they are more noxious. But nothings 100 % safe.
I have heard of them going after millies and hairl polyp sps.
You get them liking your prepaired foods and keep some sponge in there to naw on and they will preffere the sponge.
Atleast mine does. Every so ofter it will inspect the orange finger sponge and take a nip.

Hey Bill,
i think he will go after you candy cane for sure, blasto and acanthasthreas are usually dependant on the fish. I have a frined who has a tank full of blasto and full grown emperor and he only went after his acanthastrea, so is all dependant on the personality of hte fish.

well many books and ppl say that juvi's work better than adults. But imo i think a fish is going to do what its going to do. I would try a small adult and then make plans to get it out if there are any problems. ohh and I would prob. go w/ a blue face if it has some nice color.
