    I have heard of them eating tubeworms and picking at Zoanthids though mine does not.

    They have also been known to nip at clams but ours has been a model citizen.

    I think the most important thing with the Copperband is to find one fairly small (~2") that isn't totally set on natural feeding habits. This will give you a better chance at wingint the fish to available foods and reduce the chances of the fish getting an appetite for your prized corals or clams.
