I'm thinking about adding these to my current 37G setup. According to Liveaquaria, these two specimen are both either difficult or aggressive.

Are these reef safe? The potters angel may nip at soft corals, but the only softies I have are mushrooms, and a kenya tree. Will these fish cause harm to my montis, acros, LPS (Frogspawn, Torch, Alvepora) or even my zoos and polyps?

Have anyone had exp with these ? If so, why are they hard to keep? finicky eaters, etc?

	LPS Large Polyped Stony corals – In the aquarium hobby this is a common division of the species of stony corals based upon the visual assessment of the size of the polyps. Corals in this category were among the first stony corals to be kept successfully in captivity and include many very beautiful species. Commonly kept Genera include Euphyllia (hammer/frogspawn coral), Favia (brain coral), Plerogyra (bubble coral), Lobophyllia (meat/tooth coral), and Caulastrea (candycane coral). LPS corals also include the popular solitary non-colonial stony corals such as Fungia (plate coral), Cynarina (button coral), Trachyphyllia (open brain coral), and Herpolitha (tongue coral). Like their SPS counterparts, LPS corals require good water quality, intense lighting of the appropriate spectrum, adequate water movement and regular supplementation of calcium.

Maybe. The only predictable fish is a dead one.

You do realize that the twin spot wrasse reaches a size of over 2 feet!!!! This is a very bad, not reef safe choice.

The Potter's Angel while it might nip at things is reasonably reef safe, BUT it is not an easy fish to keep and most don't make it -- they don't feed well and even if they do the track record is bad.

I say you pass on both.

Is there a colorful fish that I may add to my 37G reef?

[prattreef]

sure hundreds of them. A little more info on your setup and current inhabitants would help.

my tank is a 37G currently housing SPS, LPS, and zoos. Livestock so far are : Yellow Rose Goby, Orange Spot Goby, PJ cardinal and Yellow Tang (1").

	SPS Small Polyped Scleractinians - Sometimes known as Small Polyped Stony corals. These are hard corals that have extremely small polyps. They are typically on the difficult side and require Metal Halide lighting or dense Power Compact or T5 arrays. These corals are prized for their rareness and ability to be easily fragged into multiple colonies.
