Hiya
My LFS has got the perfect size coral beautyit has been isolated in the fish store for the time. my 40 gallon is 3 to 4 weeks from it completing the cycle If all goes well. Would a coral beauty be fine with a clownfish in a 15 gallon for the next 3 to 4 weeks i have plenty of algae For it to gaze on. Also the only coral in the tank is gsp
Many thanks

Possibly. Dwarf Angels can be fairly aggressive, although the Coral Beauty tends to be one of the more mild mannered ones. If you were trying a Flame Angel, I would definitely say no. That said, Dwarf Angels ideally should have a 4 foot long tank. I say this after a failure with a Flame Angel in my 36 gallon and a success with my Coral Beauty in my 4 foot long 90 gallon. For your tank a Pygmy Angel aka Cherubfish would be a better choice.

I have to agree with Jesterrace even dwarf angels need plenty of space or it will become really aggressive over its territory. I myself have a 29 cube and my friend gave me her pygmy angel because it was wrecking havoc in her tank to the point she thinks it killed or caused the death of one of her clowns. I know a 29 is nowhere near enough for any angel dwarf but i am in the middle of upgrading to a 150 so its only temporary. Even though you have algae for it to graze that will not help with his aggression if he becomes territorial or should i say when he becomes territorial. if your set on a dwarf angel then i suggest keeping by itself dont worry he wont be lonely.

For a few weeks I think it would be fine. Although if something goes array could be much longer.
