Well I’ve had a double saddle butterfly fish and a threadfin butterfly fish for about three year, till one day I got a bit bored and did an impulse buy and added a third butterfly fish which was a huge mistake, it ended up not eating, got some disease and ended up killing all three of my fish.
So after that I got two clown fish, I’ve had them for a year now, but have had this Aiptasia anemone outbreak in my tank with no butterfly fish to eat them……so when I was at a local pet store and saw they just got in some cooperband fish I bought one right away.

i doubt i'll try with another cooperband, once i have no luck with a type of fish i don't push my luck in buying it again. did you buy your two at the same time?
