I think it's a hit or miss on all fish getting a taste for coral.

I had a yellow eye kole tang eat spa like crazy

There was some type of algae on the coral that the kole ate and it also took chunks of sps flesh.

I have learned that you need fish that will do some job for you. Here are my two cents.
Cleaner wrasse - will keep your fish healthy and will cleaning any parasites off your fish,
Copperband Butterfly - will take care any aiptasia in your tank,
Fox face tang - will eat bubble algae,
Any sand sifting goby if you planing to have sand.

I'm a fan of the chevron tang. A healthy adult looks awesome.

They won’t eat corals...just your clean up crew.

By the way, how bug is your tank? Reefer 270 LX gives me no results.

It’s a Waterbox 270LX not really sure it’s 6 feet by 30 inches wide and 26.3 tall I’m guessing like 200 gallons

(Length x width x height in inches) / 231 = volume in gallons (not including glass thickness, overflow boxes, and head space). So (72 x 30 x 26.3) / 231 = 245.9
