It is completely hit and miss with Flames. Even if a flame has a history of not eating corals, they can one day, out of the blue decide that corals and clams are now a great food source. Or, you can get one that once ate corals but has now decide it would much rather eat flakes??? My Flame eats flakes, pellets, flatforms, nudibranches and fish mush (homemade fish food). He likes to tease my SPS corals but has not actually eaten any (yet). I never see him near my softies or clams. It all depends on their environment I think, that is, amount and types of food sources that you provide, other inhabitants; who else they are competing for food with, etc.. All of which changes from the ocean to your tank to someone else's tank.
