The Australian Stripey Butterflyfish is a hardy, peaceful fish with a rounded body and bold vertical striping. It is one of the easier butterfly-type fish to keep and readily accepts a mix of meaty and plant-based foods.
It does best in an established tank with live rock to pick at, and may nip at some soft corals and anemones, so introduce it with care in a reef. Call our Miami shop for current availability and price.
