Who Gives A Fish Forums

mixing dwarf angels is generally not a good idea, you could give it a shot but i wouldn't recommend it, its just not worth the risk

You could also consider a damsel for cycling purposes, if you're going down that route.

You gotta cycle the tank first before adding anything else, just besides live rock.

You'll end up having to tear down the whole tank just to catch those damsels, and it's gonna be a hassle. Just cycle it the normal way, with some liverock or a piece of shrimp, it's way easier.

If this were an online purchase, I might suspect some funny business, but since you saw it ...
