Question
I would like to know if i can keep anemones in the same aquarium as large angelfish such as the maculosus angel,blue ring angel and queen angelfish without them doing damage to the anemone such as a bubble tipped anemone.or any anemone as a matter or fact.  

Answer
Hi Alaica,
It's not the best combination to have unless you have enough space. 90 gallons or larger is what I recommend, but 75 will work. Thats just one of those pairings that usually(80% of the time) ends in disaster. And thats usually due to having both species in a system too small.
