Majestic and Blue faced angels

[alessandro]

I have a 300 gallon reef tank with a Majestic along with some others angels ( Goldflake,Regal,Flame,Bellus).
I'd like to add a Blue faced but I am worried it will be harassed from the Majestic being of the same genus.
What do you think?
experiences?

Everything I've read is that blueface angels get aggressive. Sounds like you have a very nice mix going. How about a chaetodontoplus species or two instead?

I have never found Majestics to be aggressive. They have always been shy in my experience. However, I have never had a particularly large specimen.

I would worry about the blueface being the aggressor?

I wouldn't do it, I have kept both species and have found BF's to get aggressive once they get large (I had to give my last one away because of aggression) I have yet to experience any aggression of this sort with my majestic despite the fact he is huge and is definately the alpha fish in the tank, just a much more mellow species IME.

agree with the above...I think a bf would dramatically change the climate of your tank with the navarchus possibly becoming a timid recluse...

Bummer, I was planning on having these two (majestic and blueface) together in my upgrade. How big of a tank would you need to house these two together?
