How hard are these things in terms of care level? Do they mess with corals or clams at all?
My tank is about year old and has been very stable since I've hit the 8 months.
I keep mostly lps,softies and few sps. its a 60g if that matters at all.
 
My understanding is that they need to filter out so much stuff to live you could never supply enough nutruents in the tank without crashing it.
 
You need a different kind of tank from the standard imo. If you're into nps and such your probable good. ULNS acro tank probably not unless you're an expert with the right gear.

1st prob is they are a bit fragile so if you buy three you might wind up with one.

My scallop is going on two years now i believe and I do keep acros in there. No walt disneys but pretty big colonies for a while there and a Huge green stylo and a few other sps.
