Chaetodon collare

Does anyone have this fish in a reef tank with sps? If so, does it damage the coral a lot?

Seem ok, but you might want to read this:

From the reading I've done on them, they're primarily polyp eaters, eating polyps of stony corals. I would assume that includes SPS

I'd like to know if anyone's taken a chance with one in their tank though. I have an OSFF that picks at acros, but it doesn't do any damage other than no polyp extension. I want to know if the butterfly will relentlessly pick until the acro stresses and dies.
