I have the opp. to get a 4" blueline which is one of my favorite fish. I have a 128 gal mixed with some acans and zoas. One prob i'm looking at is the tank dims are 41"x29"x25". Obviously i want to make sure the fish's needs are met, so if its too small then I will pass.

Also is there any "large" angels i can keep that aren't complete coral munchers. I know its hit or miss but i'd like to hear what you have/had and how they did with certain corals.
Thanks,
derek

Members of the genicanthus family are considered to be reef safe. With a blue line I would expect the acans to be eaten. I also think your tank is too small for most large angels. Definitely check out the genicanthus family though, they are some of my favorite fish.
