Careful they are not Reef Safe from what I have se

Comments

These are great fish to have they add a lot to a tank but care should be taken as they are not reef safe and will eat anemone if given the chance as I had to learn the hard way! Not the fish but the keepers fault though so if you have the right size tank (they can get large) and nothing that they want to eat give them a try.

Liked about it	Great addition, easy to care for and they really do look like a raccoon.
Didn't like	Ate my anemone! Oh well =( Not a true reef fish in my opinion.

Very attractive Butterfly

Comments

Probably my favorite butterfly. I've had a number of them over the years. They can grow very large so best to keep them in a larger aquarium. They are peaceful and don't bully, yet can stand up for themselves in agressive tanks. I have not been daring enough to try them out in a feef tank and don't know that I ever will.
