Description

Chaetodon flavirostris

The Butterfly is fairly hardy and adapts well to life in an aquarium if acclimated properly.  Most butterflies in this genus can be added in a group. They won’t do well with fish that are overly aggressive, but they will also nip and pick at fish that are very timid. Finding ideal tank mates can be a challenge. Initially, butterflies can be shy; making sure there are plenty of hiding places will help them acclimate. Butterflies are not recommended for reef aquariums because they are very likely to consume a variety of coral polyps. These will benefit from multiple feedings per day, be sure to provide a varied diet of frozen meaty foods. Adding algae to their diet will give them things to graze on, mimicking their wild eating behavior and improving their immune systems.
