I'm really interested in this fish. But I can't find much info on whether it's reef safe or not. Live Aquaria lists it as "with caution". In my tank I will be keeping muchrooms, LPS hard corals, and maybe a few soft corals. Does anyone have any experience with them and do they pick at corals?
 
I can only speak from my experences when I had 6 together. They'll devour mushroooms, zoas and LPS.

I wasn't keeping acros back then but I'm sure at the very least they'll nip.

Sofites will fare a lot better.
