Im not sure why people dont put them into reefs, bue maybe some one could provide some inset as to why they are not reef safe.
They are reef safe IMO. They only problem is that they will get big enough to knock over loose frags because some types like to perch, generally not volitons though. The other problem is that a lot of smaller fish associated with reefs will be too small and often consumed. You need to be careful when buying fish now because anything small enough to fit in his mouth is food. I'd wait a couple of months to get him really satisfied with frozen foods before putting any othe fish in the tank.
