Hi Bro

Coral Beauty might be possible as midnight is normally shy and thus shuold be 1st dwarf in your tank.

You may notice that I have 7 dwarf angels and they are introduce in this sequence:

Bi-Color pair - 2 years old

Midnight - 1 yr 9 mths

Coral Beauty and pyypmy - 1 year 6 mths (introduce togather)

Flame Angel - 1 yr

Argi Angel - 9 mths (last in my list)

Hope this help.

Depends on luck I guess..

I have a flame angel and a very small Coral Beauty in my 4x2x2 tank..

The Coral Beauty (2/3 size of Flame) was introduced around 5 months after the Flame.. so far so good.. only minor chasing around..

It is really a hit and miss chance...

I used to have a angel only tank but lost all of them due to over dosage of medication.

It is a 2 x 1.5 x 1.5...

2 x Bellus(Female)

1 x Flagfin(Juvenile)

1 x Lamarck Angel

1 x Coral Beauty

1 x Colini Angel

1 x White Tail Angel

1 x Midnight Angel

1 x Multibar Angel

1 x Venustus Angel

1 x Scopas Tang

1 x Powder Black Tang

1 x Regal Angel

And some Wrasses,gobies and misc fishes

The introduction process is important..

Basically is using the Betta Box and Mirror Method.

I normally will place the angel in the betta box to let the existing angels get used to the the new angel... Up to a month depending on the situation and it will allow me to pump up the new angel so that it have better chance of fending off the chasing when introduce..

After you introduce the angel, put a mirror beside you tank, so that the angels will be distracted by their own image than to chase the new angel... This will carry on up to 1 week.. Depending on the aggression level, so have to moniter daily..

Try not to introduce only one new fish at a time, as this will become the target of old birds inside!

but i scare intro too many together will cause ammonia spike & stress

is 2 at a time ideal?

2 is quite okay.. Consider their size, it will take lot to cause an ammonia spike in a 3ft tank.. 3 might be pushing it..

thanks...will add coral beauty and midnight once i manage to sell off my corals

[Terryz_]

You selling your corals for angels? The two angels you are buying are relatively safe for corals.. Not sure for lps but they are okay with softies..

[dnsfpl]

i am selling away my LPS...and fund for angels haha

[dnsfpl]

got myself a coral beauty & midnight from coral farm

my yellow tang got berserk, keep chasing all the fish

hopefully all can stay together peacefully

[dnsfpl]

the chasing stops after an hour

the yellow tang indeed shows who is the boss of the tank

thanks all
