Default Re: Reef safe butterflies?

Longnose and copperband are best choices, but even they are probably no better than 50/50 for being reefsafe. Most butterflys are specialized polyp eaters in the wild and will ravage corals in the aquarium.

edit-- I wouldnt consider any butterfly to be safe with tube worms or clams.
