My 4 clams went into the zoa tank after my coral beauty took a taste for them, so far so good and they are in with a copperband.

I have had my potters in my 60gal for 8 months with no issues. the tank is a mixed reef with zoa's, sps, some mushrooms and a clam. He has never nipped. The biggest issue with potters is getting them to eat. In all honesty mine rarely takes given food of mysis, ocean plakton or brine. The little guy is as fat and happy as can be. Like all angels, its a risk adding them to a reef set up

Do they do detrimental damage to corals or just certain types... Sps LPS... etc.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

They live in a tank that is all sps and the sps seem to cope with the nibbling. I'm pretty sure if left with any lps or clams for long enough and they would kill it

Had to remove my flame for excessive nipping, at the end of the day it comes down to luck plain and simple.
