I have one now, it really has only went after one colony of zoo's I have, the other it ignores. Adding any angels can be a risk (I have a flame as well).

I have one in my reef. He is fine with everything; occasionally nips stuff but never does any damage.

I have a friend that has one. It has recently taken to picking at his frogspawn to the point where one of them has to go.

I'm wanting to get the same fish... so I'm going to tag along
 My 75G reef tank is too small and I have too many different corals to take a chance. I guess I'll just have to get a new tank  I'm looking at a 130G. That way I can dedicate the tank to the Majestic and add corals on a trial basis to see what he'll bother. It'll be easier to move corals in and out of the tank than trying to remove the fish if there is a problem... make sense? Besides, it's a Great excuse to start a new tank!
