What are your opinions on the nipping of a emeoror angel I just think they are awesome looking fish and would love to have one I just don't know about the nipping that has been reported. I need to come up with some fish that will be reef compatible and will get along with my lionfish. I do have a frogspawn that I would be worried about, but would part with if I had to I just want to be able to have some corals or at least an anemone that will be able to flow around like that. Other corals in the tank now are a galaxia, yellow zoanthid rock, and purple mushroom rock. What would I be okay with?

If you get the angel and he does bother the frogspawn and other corals i would be happy to give them a new safe home :D
