There's quite a number of different types of them in the market. Just don't get the longfin that is not reefsafe... :o

Their ###### fins will arched instead of keeping straight like the schooling bannerfish... ;)

rather hardy I believe and easy to feed than the moorishes. I think they are also called the poor man's idol... :lol:

mysis, brine shrimps and some flakes with vegetation should do as diet... :)

Just my two cents' worth... :P

Must buy from a good source for healthy ones. I only managed to keep it for long time after the 4th attempt. It's a butterfly and it's as sensitive and not reef safe. Prone to itch when it first arrive. Proper quarantine is highly recommended. Eats almost immediately. But if it stop eating, immediate action is required or else tragedy in just one or two days time. Currently i've a pair of 4 inches each (excluding the long fin) :D
