anyone has a racoon fish in their reef tank?
What kind of coral they tend to nip at?
any feedback would be great
Thanks

I had one for a while. It nibbled at my brain corals if I recall correctly.

Raccoon butterflies are NON-reefsafe. Any sw fish authority/book will state this. The rare exception will be fine with corals and clams, but you're going to be taking a huge chance. Even if a couple of members have had good luck with their's in the past, the odds are you would end up with one that eats your corals/clams.

I had one for a while to bring a mojano infestation under control. It did that very well, but when the mojano got scarce, it started to pick at my hammer coral.

It's gone now, the hammer is doing well again and I keep the few mojano that still show up under control with kalk paste.
