reef safe

[debbie]

What does it mean when they say that this fish is not reef safe??
Will they eat the corals or inverts or both

 

[spanko]

Usually both

Sometimes they will say something like "Monitor with shrimp"
and sometimes you are told they will pick at clam mantles or softies or even sps.
My point is look into what makes a particular fish "not reef safe" and maybe it can still be used in your tank.
