I have never heard of them picking at SPS, but they do nest in SPS corals and just their nesting behaviour alone can irritate the coral to the point of killing part of it off.
 
I had a clown goby for about 4 months in a F20g OWLER tank... and the poor little guy got eaten by my very nasty emerald crab. Trop has a really pretty one right now if you are anywhere near Ocean.
