Majestic angel with zoas?

[Ocicat]

On LiveAquaria, regarding the majestic angelfish, they say: "It generally will not harm small-polyped stony corals and somewhat noxious soft corals. "

Am I correct in interpreting that "somewhat noxious soft corals" includes zoanthids?

Also, I'd love to hear about any personal experiences with this fish and zoas.

Hey Ocicat-

I think majestic's are hit or miss with zoos. I kept a majestic with my zoos for a year- model citizen he was great never touch anything. Then he started to pick at all my zoos but would only eat the expensive colorful ones and leave the dull brown ones alone. Go figure! So needless to say I had to banish him to my fish only tank. They are beautiful fish though good luck!

"The Blue Girdled Angelfish is not a good reef dweller, being prone to nip at stony and soft corals (sessile invertebrates) and clam mantles. It generally will not harm small-polyped stony corals and somewhat noxious soft corals."

Sounds kinda fishy to me... I wouldn't take the risk... Especially with an Angel of that size... Half of your colonies would be gone by the time you wake up the next morning... But then again, I have a Singapore angel that picks at certain zoos, and if I see that some aren't openning and suspect they're beeing bothered, I just move the zoos to one of my other tanks... Like Deec77 said, they only go after the colorful expensive ones... Mine especially likes blues... Bad fishy!!!!!!!
