In as humble a way as possible... your tank is overstocked as it is, especially as your fish grow to adult size.
An emperor needs at least 2-3x your tank size to live a happy and healthy life.
A flame angel would be very risky (not considering bioload) b/c smaller angels tend to fight with each other in smallish spaces.

yea.. it is kind of crowded. i see people keep all these large angels and want to try it out. I'm getting rid of some fish like puffer and foxface to make some room for an Emperor. thinking about getting a juvi emperor and let it grow. ofcourse, after getting rid of some fish.

I have 2 hippo, 1 powder brown, 1 purple tang, 2 banner fish, 1 foxface, 1 puffer, 1 lemon peel angel, 1 majestic angel (adult), 1 maroon clown, 3 regular clown and a fire fish. I thinking about getting rid of the puffer, foxface and one of the hippo to make some room.
The tank size is ok, but I don't think you should add any other fish.
The bigger issue would be what corals are in there that a Flame might decide to nosh on

I recently added a female bellus angel to my 90g reef and she quickly became my favorite fish. Beautiful!
Well, it is basically LPS. But if you keep them well fed ....The tank size is ok, but I don't think you should add any other fish.

Mine didn't eat the corals and was very well fed, but you know Sam, it's always a toss up on whether the fish will listen to us or if they think corals are like candy.. I hope you score a model reef citizen
