    I love the look of this fish the Harlequin Tusk does anybody have one in a reef ? I read that you can have one in a reef with caution what is the issue do they eat hermits , snails or corals? here is a picture

    everything I have read said they were not reef safe, very very cool fish though, I have alwas liked the look of them, kinda interested to see what answers come up, since I plan on having at least a 265 reef tank when I eventually buy a house

    It's not gonna eat you corals. Inverts are toast. One of my top 10 favorite fish though. I've always loved them.
