Filefish eat mushrooms and palys?

[SeaHorse_Fanatic]

On my second filefish (had one for years) and never seen them go after any corals, just aiptasia.

Our filefish will eat zoas (I still don't know the difference between zoas & palys though lol), I still see lots of mushrooms in the tank it is in tho. Oh and ours eats majanos too , I know that's not what you asked Walter.

mine doesn't touch mushrooms or palys though wish would (at least the mushrooms)

Or are there other fish that eat mushrooms and palys (similar but bigger than zoas, Ian) like maybe another butterfly fish? Again, this is for my QT tank, not by DT.

I wish mine would, he cleaned up the aiptasia but hasn't touched the ugly palys (or anything else)in his tank.
