I assume in this matter ostraciids are like puffers and that it is unlikely for them to eat the untasty of the corals.

I am just askin this because i know my valentini is reef safe but im wondering if, well lol i just realized that these fsh are exactly like puffers and they have there own personalities. haha you comments are still appreciated. Very Happy

Probablly just like puffers, some will eat all the corals they can, and others won't bother any.

I have my boxfish in a tank with a bunch of hairy mushrooms and he doesnt touch them. He does enjoy some nori now and again!

They shouldn't eat leather corals... AFAIK they taste bad and secrete a mild toxin (with the exception of S. Elegans, which is slightly more powerful).

It's all personal preference of the fish.

I guess.

But still, leather corals are usually left untouched after the first few tastes.
