Butterflies
What have been peoples success with different butterfies in a reef tank?
What types and what did they pick at if anything? |
I know the pyramid butterflys tend to work out well, there are also a lot of people that have keep a copperband butterfly in their tank with no problems.
|
anyone have any luck with a Heniochus Black and White Butterflyfish or a Raccoon?

Heniochus - I've had both Acumitatus & Diphreutes. My Diphreutes were totally fine in my reef. My Acumitatus were also fine but are known to be not reef safe. Both were kept with clams, SPS & LPS. My Racoon caused slightly more problems. He liked to nip at my hammers & also annoyed my clams once in a while. Apart from that he was fine. I've had a lot of different Butterflies in the past & most enjoyed eating my LPS & bothered my clams. There was another thread asking the same thing recently. . |
Thanks for the input, I must have missed that other thread.

I have had a Heniochus for 5 weeks and have not seen him bother any corals. Mostly just hovers over the live rock in search of pods, etc. |
