Imperator Angel And Copperbanded Butterfly With SPS?

[daniella3d]

Copperband butterfly eating sps? or any coral? mine don't touch anything at all, not even my crocea clam. It is well fed though. I feed him live white worms and fresh mussels as well as mysis. I also have tons of pods crawling everywhere and he surely love the amphipods.

I have never seen my copperband even pay some attention to my coral. Watch out for the feather dusters because mine are all gone.

I think the problem with the copperband is not if it's going to eat your coral, but rather will it eat at all??

So would I be ok with these guys in a pure SPS tank?

Im not as worried with the copperbanded... More the angel. I was told that them emps are the best with the lowest chances and if you introduce them when there very small there is a less chance they will be coral hungry from being rasied in the tank and not developed coral eating habits in the wild

my emp was awsome will all my sps for months untill one day i came home from work and he ate/killed almost all my acros. It then proceded to teach my queen and flameback angles to do the same. It was sweet while it lasted

I had a potters "angle" (hopefully someone catches on to that) and he was a model citizen. loved the little bugger. Also tried a butterfly but she didn't make it to long before my yellow tang was threatened by her presence
