Are they 100% reef safe? I think I read somewhere about them and softies not getting along sometimes?

My beloved LPS?! Never!!! Hahah. Are all blennies like this?

I've heard they are hit or miss as well too. Mine hasn't touched anything, but I have only had him a month or so and only have softies, so take that for what it's worth. He is, by far, my favorite fish though. He's always either just perched and hanging out or picking at the rocks.

Then I definitely dont want anymore fish like this, I just had to take down my tank do to a nipping coral beauty angel.
What other fish do you all think would have the same type of personality? Preferrably some type of blenny....what about the canary blenny?

Just to clarify, he picks at my rocks, not my corals. I'm not sure if I worded that very well in my first post.

Munched on Moni Cap, now doing time in QT for bad behavior
Ah I would have QTed the CBA a while ago, but I dont have a QT. I dont have the room for another tank in my room. I let the LFS put it in the DT for a week and then show me its eating before I buy it. The wrasse had been there for 5 days and it ate brine when I was considering to get it, and hes alive this morning so Im glad.

they have a relatively high afinity for nipping at (or completely wasting) SPS. they arent 100% reef safe in any kind of tank. they arent nearly as safe as typical website descriptions would lead you to believe.
What fish are we talking about here? The sixline or the bicolor blenny?
