I have one in a tank that has had softies, LPS, and SPS. Still has softies and LPS (SPS moved to another tank). I do also have a T. Crocea clam.

The potters has never been a problem for nipping at anything in the tank, but as with any fish, YMMV.

Angels ussually hit or miss....I had one for a year in my reef but I had to let him go because he did some damaged on my lps.

Saw one at the lfs today for $50. I wanted him but didn't have the money to spend.

I had one since July, didn't bother anything. He died last week, not sure why. Make sure you have some algae growth to graze on until you get him to eat. It took several weeks before mine would eat and I purchased him on line from a vendor who claimed it was eating all foods!?! Beautiful fish.
