Default auriga butterfly in my reef tank

bought an auriga 2 weeks ago hoping it would go to work on those pesky anemones (desperate enough to end this headache once and for all). having heard all those advices about how most butterflies do not mix well with reeftanks i at first kept it in a 10 gal tank plumbed to sump and drop in some liverocks that were anemone infested along with few attached frags. you guessed it darn fish totally ignored pests and started pecking at those frags. pecking went on until some frozen food was thrown in and this fish turned its attention to food. couple of days later seeing how the frags remained more or less unmolested i dropped the auriga into maintank where it now resides, eating frozens and totally ignoring everything else. guess my next step would be trying out something like a racoon butterfly.
