Is it possible to have a pygmy angel in a 14 gallon?

[IFoundNemo]

I would like to have a pygmy angel. Right now my only saltwater tank is a 14 gallon biocube reef. Can I happily house a pygmy angel in my tank? Or should I just wait until I eventually set up another (bigger) tank? I don't want to be like the person I saw on youtube that had 2 yellow tangs in a 3 gallon and was completely unaware of what was wrong with that, so I thought I'd ask for opinions before I went out and got one.

atlantic pygmy angel stays small and non aggressive (did not see you wanted to do reef)

They are dwarf angels. See if you can get one on the smaller end. Usually, I wouldn't keep it in anything smaller than a 30 gallon. Careful with it though, it might/might not be reef safe.

Angels have tendency to nip at corals and can cause some damage be very careful when selecting one.
