Fish Supplies

The Copperband Butterfly is one of the most beautiful of the butterfly fish. Its orange, white, and yellow coloring is complimented with a black false eye spot. It does require a bit of extra care but the payoff of its beauty is worth the effort. It may be a finicky eater and should be housed with peaceful fish to limit stress. You can try live food and switch to prepared once it has adjusted to its new home. It is excellent for controlling Aiptasia or Glass Anemones. Unfortunately, it will also enjoy eating other inverts so it is not recommended for a reef system.
