Zoster Butterflyfish


Recommended Posts

I don't have personal experience but they have not shipped in well to the shop.  I know they are planktonic feeders in the wild and after time and some diligence can accept flakes and brine.  They do well in groups with big enough tanks too.  Richard Ross at the steinhart museum knows of keeping them very well from what I understand.

Thanks Brandon. Been thinking of doing a couple for the 120, but can’t find anyone with personal experience with them. Also, not sure if the 120is big enough to house them long term. 

Yeah Ryan i had one back in 6-7 yrs ago in my 250 cube. Awesome fish, only things he picked at were zoas and trumpets. But even then not alot, but if thinking of getting one, i wouldn’t advise thing like those corals, palys probably ok, but acans, trachys, wellso etc I wouldn’t take a chance with and 120 is probably big enough. Mine was the size of a big copperband.
