I've always heard nothing but bad things in even huge tanks (400 gallons and larger) about mixing Centropyge species.
I think your best bet will be to choose a specific species you like, and then watch for a pair to become available somewhere. That's probably the easiest way (only way?) to success with mutliple Centropyge species in a single tank.

Its quite doable, but you need the right circumstances (large tank with plenty of hiding places) and the willingness to mix the right fish together at the right times.

I have 2 angels in my 90 no problems at all. Bi-color and a CB. Like people have said before make sure they are added at the same time.
It's not too late! If you wanted to try another angel, you'd just remove the potters, do a little re-aquascaping, then add the new angel at the same time as the potters. But, I'm not too sure about the lemonpeel, or eibli in a reef.

In my 210 g tank I had a pair of brazilian flameback , a melas, a knox and a pacifc pigmy together and all fine. Some smalll aquascaping changes but more due my large angels than due dwarf agression. Just introduce same size or smaller size to reduce agressions.
