Has anyone had a Klein’s Butterfly with SPS corals for an extended period? I’m considering a Klein’s but my Saddleback Butterfly had a tendency to kill my SPS so I wanted to see if anyone had experience to share of Klein’s Butterfly with SPS. I’m ok with them killing LPS and Zoas.

Kleins are one of the 'safer' butterflies with sps.
Good to know. What other do you consider a safer bet with corals?

Raccoons are good with sps too.
I had a Racoon in a system with Acros and Montis. I suspected that the SPS were being damaged by a butterfly so I removed the raccoon. No change with the SPS so I removed my Saddleback butterfly and immediately everything bounced back. Looking back, I’m pretty sure my Raccoon wasn’t causing much/any trouble but the Sadleback definitely was. Now I only have a marginalis that apparently doesn’t eat Aiptasia. The saddleback quickly wiped out my other system of Aiptasia but I won’t be trusting him around corals again.
