Multiple Dwarf Angels in Reef Tank

[maui-reefer]

Greetings. I am thinkingabout adding Multiple (3-5) Dwarf Angels to my Reef Tank. My Reef is 140 Gallons. Has anyone put more than one in there Reef Tank? Please list species and results?

Thank You!

Ive got a flame and potters in my 92 mixed reef, no problems at all. At the begining the potters chased the flame a bit, but they have both settled in nicely.

Before that, I had a flame and a coral beauty in the same 92 gallon mixed reef. Those two got along fine after some initial chasing and aggression by the coral beauty.

Unfortunaetly those two passed away when my wife forgot to turn my return pump back on after feeding the tank.

I have a yellow and rusty in a 150g and no problems then a little chasing. Don't know about 3 or more though.

I have multiple dwarfs in each of my tanks, reef, FOWLR, and my newly set up 29 gal nano. I have cherubs (2 trios and a pr) prs of potters, fishers and flame angels. The nano has the least angels with 3 (single potters and a pr of cherubs). Every once in a while when adding another angel they fight for a day or two but never too much and I haven't had to remove any fish yet. I know I'm probably just lucky, but I add the fish knowing there could be problems and I accept the risk.

The other thing to remember is the possibility of them eating things you don't want. Their level of "reef-safeness" can be pretty unpredictable. If you have several of them, that increases the odds of ending up with one that has some bad habits, and then you have to figure out a way to get that one out.

I would love to see pics of these multiple angel setups because they sound awesome.
