In response to Buzzard, I've been to that site alot before, my interest in marine tanks has kind of slowly decreased over the 5 years I've had them, mainly in the past year. I just wasn't sure if my nearly 10" queen angel would pick on a say.. 3" flame dwarf angel, I would think it might, but maybe not becasue due to different body shapes and very different colors.

In response to the latest response, I don't think they would kill one another considering my Queen Angel has been in my tank for almost 2 years and is almost 11 inches and the Flame would likely be 3. If anything the Queen would kill the Flame probbaly the first week I added it.

Coloration is different enough, but the body shape is still pretty similar (queens have longer pointed fins, but the overall shape is close). Queen angels can get pretty aggressive with their tankmates. Depending on your tank size, it may consider the entire tank its territory and harrass the flame (or any other new fish) just because its an intruder.
In freshwater, this is solved by rearranging the tank decor to disrupt the territories, but if you have live rock, this isn't as easily done. If you have a second tank you could put the queen in while the flame gets to know his way around the tank, at least he'd know where he can get away. I suspect though, they'd end up in different tanks permanently.

Go to this site

Pick your fish, look at the quick stats and click on the compatibility chart.
But generally speeking, The flame angel is a dwarf angel and the Queen angel is a large angel, They should be compatible.
