sohal, purple tang... red sea fish.

irene have red sea fishes but don't have carribean contacts as far as i know. but then again, irene has tonga, hong kong contacts. she just don't bring them in... so maybe she has new shipment.

but the sohal and purple tang is from red sea shipment.

as for blue mask butterfly, i have no idea what it is.. common names so misleading. but since it's with the purple tang and sohal and from the red sea, my guess will be golden butterfly. (Chaetodon semilarvatus). they have a blue eye patch on the eye.

yeap its Chaetodon semilarvatus. lots of butterfly fishes in this shipment.

Chaetodon larvatus, Chaetodon auriga and quite a few others

really!?

is there Chaetodon paucifasciatus and Chaetodon mesoleucos?

the red sea variant for auriga (threadfin) butterfly is also very nice!! black back.

C. larvatus is impossible to keep. obligate coralivore.

red sea can also get the red sea raccoon butterfly, Chaetodon fasciatus.

red sea shipment not interesting one.

i only want to know irene's shipment details because of the influx of butterflies.

butterflies other than golden butterfly from red sea are very uncommon and i'm wondering if the one i'm looking for is here.

nvm i call irene.

didn't see any Chaetodon paucifasciatus

Chaetodon mesoleucos i'm not that sure cause there are a few other species which are quite confusing.

the Chaetodon larvatus there are very cute. small sized too

C. larvatus is an obligate SPS eater that eats nothing but SPS.

extremely difficult to keep though there's been some success.

no one except the most experienced of reefers should try.
