hmmm very odd. my book "Marine Fish" says they r but will eat small fish, shrimps and other motile inverts...but harmless to coral


Edit: Careful, very predatory, will make short work of any small fishes...

Semi fine like Nick said. They get fairly large, love to knock stuff over and will consume any small fish/mobile invert/mollusks that presents itself to them.
