Is my foxface eating my coral?

Over the past two weeks I've had three hammers that slowly started tearing part. I've seen polyp bailout before and it didn't look like that. The pieces of flesh would start disappearing a couple of days at a time. I also noticed the same thing happened with two of my acans. I've seen my fox face soft corals before and so right now he's the likely culprit. I posted a couple of pictures just to give you an idea of what they looked like. Honestly I'm ready to evict him simply because I've seen him nipping at soft corals before and I would gladly give up any fish in my tank if it was damaging my coral. Thoughts?

Sorry. That's the only thing I can think of. All my parameters check out and all of my coral were doing fine up until a couple of weeks ago. And like I said, with two of my acans they were just whole chunks missing within 24 hours. I'm going to move him to my quarantine tank and see if any other polyps come up missing
