Nope! I don't have any corals in the tank that he likes. Large angels are notorious for nipping at; zoas, brains, acans etc but those types of corals are in another tank ;)

I definitely want to have corals in the tank because they are the keystone of reef ecosystems, but I really wanted to take advantage of the 3ft front to back to allow some big fish to roam and grow in as 'natural' a system as I could create for them. I want the fish to really be the showcase in this tank and I'm willing to restrict the coral species I can keep in order to do so.
