I think we need to consider the benifits of having softies even is SPS dominated systems. They act as nutrient sponges much like the various common macros we used for nutrient export. I have no macros in my tank, but enough softies to export enough nutrients to leave my tank algae free. IMO it is a symbiotic relationship between vastly different corals, they work well together.
