Default Flame angel acro safe?

I'm looking to get a flame angel for my acro tank but I would like to hear from people who've had them before.
If you had one that started to eat corals:
- what type of corals did it start nipping at? LPS/Softies/SPS?
- have you seen one nip at acro polyps?

My flame is 5 years old and has never touched my SPS, LPS, zoos or clams.

I had a flame angel that loved picking at small polyps on anything (sps, softies) never actually damaged anything but the small polyped corals no longer opened during the day.

Hi Chin

I have had a Flame Angel in my 180G for 4 years, I have never seen him pick at any of my corals. They add great colour to your tank.

Hey Chin,
I had one in my old tank for around a year. It was a model citizen, that didn't pick at anything at all. If you have a frag tank now, I would give it a test run there.
Cheers,
Caleb
