I have owned two, my current one is not reef safe. Loves to nip everything. My previous one was SPS safe but clam and LPS unsafe.
As tony said, it's more to do with the individual fish rather than the type of fish in many cases. I have a Regal tang that is starting to develop a taste for clams. Plus, now that my Purple Tang has seen my Regal Tang nip at clams my Purple Tang is starting to get in on the clam nipping action  Most people would consider both fish reef safe :-)

I have a Flame and a Potter's, both are reef safe. But as others stated, it is a gamble, beautiful fish if you wish to take the chance.

I have a coral beauty it's never touched anything but..... I think it's 50/50 at best depends on the individual fish

Haha you guys are making it TOUGH for me!
I was hoping for a clear and definite majority. Normally I woudn't care one way or another, but these fish are soooooooo beautifully coloured, with lots of personality and livelyhood. I blame it all on Carrera75 for tempting me with a non-nipping one! Haha!  http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=83362

I have a Flame Angel and he is not a coral nipper. However, can't say he is a favorite fish of mine. He was not on my top 5.
Looks nice, with the bright colors, but is not as friendly or has the character and personality of some of my other fish. He is an active swimmer, but does not come up to the front of the tank to greet me (or beg for food) like some of the other fish. To me he is just an ornament.
