>Just to qualify this, Greg has a 400g tank, with a TON of coral.<

And just to clarify again....I had this fish in a 110 for about a year, and it was fat and plenty happy. Now...the 110 also had lots of coral in it compared to some tanks.

>They pick mainly at Acropora. Stylophora, Seriatopora and Pocillopora are picked on as well, but not as much. Polyp extension on Acropora will only be visible at night, most other corals keep their polyps open. <

That is exactly my experience as well. Also seem to snack on Hydnophora. I cannot however say that I see any significant damage. If you have corals that have colorful polyps, and you want to SEE the colorful polyps, then this fish is for sure off your list. They ignore Montipora genera, FWIW.
