The Bluespotted Angelfish is a medium large marine angelfish well suited to reef tanks. It grows to about 8" - 20 cm - so it's not suited to nano reefs, or even small reefs for that matter. I think it'd do well in tanks at least 150 gallons or so, where it will be generally non-aggressive towards it's tank mates.
The Bluespotted Angelfish will likely torment fish added to your aquarium after it, so ideally it could be amongst the last of your fish. Mine holds it's own against my Achilles Tang, and together they rule the tank. Though I would say the fish is non-aggressive, these fish do appear to be territorial and so keep that in mind.
In my reef tank, my angelfish eat nori, as well as a variety of frozen foods and high quality pellets. I've not found the Bluespotted Angelfish to be picky at all, and I'm often left wondering how it avoids "ice cream headaches" given how quickly it devours food sometimes. This fish can also nibble on coral, mine particularly enjoyed a Green Acropora that I had in my reef tank before my crash. It has left LPS and Zoanthids alone though I bet some individuals may sample things. My angelfish never did any lasting harm to my coral, though I often saw nibbled tips on it.
