Anyone here have a pygmy cherub angelfish??

I know that they have to be monitored with corals but has anyone had troubles with one of these bothering mushroom, polyps or open brains??

Had one for a long time, no problems with corals, but I can't be sure he didn't go after clams. I lost 4 in rapid succession.

Angels are hit or miss dep on individual. You gotta decide what you're willing to put up with b/c once they go in, they can be a nightmare to try and catch.

My cherub bothers the clams on occasion, but otherwise is a good citizen. He really likes nori rubberbanded to a rock. I think this keeps him too busy to be destructive. My only gripe is that he pesters my wrasses ( 4-line and yellow )

I would watch it with the open brain and a clam, ... might go after either, or both.

I put one in my mixed reef and so far no problems. He picks at LR all day and I have yet to see him nip at anything.

I have only had him for a month so I will check back later! :)
