I find this to be one of the most amazing fish ever, but I was wondering why it is ot reef safe?
If I was to keep it in a reef would that be a decison I would regret?
The only reason I am asking is because I kept a Queen Angel in my 110 reef tankand it was just fine.

TIA!!

You will regret it primarily because the fish would almost certainly die. These beautiful fish are obligate coral eaters, requiring acropora to survive.

Here's a link to some FAQs about them:
