Lamarck Angelfish in a SPS reef?

[coral keeper]

I was just wondering, will a Lamarck Angelfish pick at corals, and clams in a reef tank? Will they be fine in a 28 gallon SPS reef with clams and some softies too?
Thanks!

its really 50/50 since it depends on the individual. i'd say dont risk it.

I've had one in my mixed reef for about 9 mths. Hasn't touched a thing.

Member of the genus Genicanthus which are planktivores and will not bother corals or clams in the aquarium, making them the perfect reef angel. So the write up on another site tells us.

I read that they are 100% reef safe and wont pick at anything and this angel is the only kind of angel that is 100% guaranteed reef safe.

Like mentioned, Genicanthus are your best bet for reef-safeness.
