My local store has had Orange Spotted Files for the past few weeks and I couldn't resist as it has always been a desired add.
Aggressively eating live brine so far.
She is currently in my Seahorse only tank but would really like to add her to my main display.
Looking to see if anyone has them in their SPS dominated tank. My reef is 225 loaded with all types of Acros.
The good, bad and other experiences are appreciated.
 
They will eat your SPS polyps.

No way around it. They are coralivores, that is what they do.

You can curb it by having so many healthy SPS that you just live with it eating away at your SPS.
