Well, if someone asked me about these fish, I'd say don't try it unless you're willing to grow a tank full of SPS to feed it. He has, so let's give it a shot. If damage is minimal to SPS, then we may find we CAN keep these fish long term in large SPS tanks. This is how we learned to keep what we can now. He's made an informed decision and believes he can provide the food, so great!
I'm anxious to see the results.

I have to agree with this. He bought this fish knowing that it would eat his sps. It looks like he has provided enough sps for the fish to eat with hopes that the sps corals will withstand the damage done to them. I believe that is what he meant when he said he was planning for the best.
