Bro,

most of the angels have the tendencies to nib corals, including the Flame Angel, but sometimes they juz nib rocks, to eat the algae on them... As for whether they nib corals, its all a matter of luck...

I've also read of cases where angels decide they like corals and clame mantles and start nibbing them later on after being kept in the tank for some time.

Got a Bicolour Angel in my tank, so far so good, only nip at my rocks and help clear up some algae... but recently saw that it nipped the mantle of my baby maxima guess it all depends on luck, my corals all doing fine so far.. but i do like angels, the way they like to peck on the rocks with their body contorted in all sorts of positions.. cute!
