I have no personal experience, but I have been told by my LFS that most butterflies will pick at corals.
Someone with more experience please chime in.

i ahvbe no experience having these, but i also hear and read they will pick at corals

they, much like larger angels usually become un-reefsafe when they grow older. they will eat corals. they should be fine with shrimp and crabs. bo

I have a coral-banded butterfly and it has just about killed my feather duster.

I have had copper-banded also, and they do like feather dusters, but do not bother the corals.

I had one for about a month or two until i sold it because it was eating at my feather dusters and polyps. But never the corals.

Copper banded butterfly fish are cool.
I think they are one of the most beautiful fish that there is.
