Koran Angel & Flame Angel compatible?

thanson · 09/19/2006, 09:11 PM

I have a 120g FOWLR with an established flame angel. The remainder of the tank is pretty passive crowd with the most dominant fish being a blue hippo tang about 5" in the tank for 5 yrs. Thinking of adding a juvenile koran angel. Hoping it will mix with the flame given it is not a dwarf angel. Any experience with this combo? What about behavior with the rest of the passive but established goup?

The answer to the inevitable question is that the other fish in the tank are:

golden maroon clown
sixline wrasse
longnose butterfly
kole tang
4 green chomis
royal gramma
lawnmower blenny
(flame angel &
blue hippo tang)

IMO, Your tank is full now...A Koreon will outgrow a 125, needs a much bigger tank

They should get along though there may be some chasing. I have a Imperator in with a flame angel. The Imperator chases the flame on occasion, but there's never been any actual fighting/damage.

And so no one panics... the Imperator is a 3 inch juvenile. He'll be moved into a 180 once he grows a little.

they would get along, but you will be pushing the bioload, do you have big skimmer on there.
