![]() I have Christy's raccoon butterfly in my rock tank on aiptasia removal duty at the moment. Eventually he will eat himself out of a job and I was wondering how he would get along with my copperband butterfly in the 175g.
Does anyone have these two together? If my copperband would in any way be threatened I won't add the raccoon to the tank but he can't live in my rock tank forever |

![]() Not having tried the combo .. my guess is that it would be OK. IME, both species butterflies are generally speaking fairly peaceable (had both, just never at the same time).
The only species of butterfly where I've heard can be a problem with other butterflies is the saddleback. In the wild, raccoons are fairly social and hang out in groups that include threadfin (auriga) so I don't see why they would act differently toward a CBB. Just my guess anyhow...

![]() Perhaps you could PRUNE some corals to make more room for them in your tank, thus reducing their stress levels and increasing chances for a harmonious co-habitation?
