A pair of Wrought Iron Butterflyfish

[macaw]

Today I acquired a pair of Wrought Iron Butterfly fish from a LFS (owner is my friend). They are both about 7" in length and already accepted pallets. Cant wait to introduce them into the DT.

Glad to hear they're doing so well already. I hope they are with you for a long time. They are such interesting looking fish, I love them.

Gorgeous! What temperature do you plan to keep them at?

 

[macaw]

Currently around 78 but planned to lower it to 73

 

[snorvich]

Good idea, as they prefer the cooler temperatures.

They are real cool looking .

excellent. Definitely get the temp down as soon as possible.

 

[macaw]

Yes, will do. It's nice to have a 1.5hp chiller...

Great stuff. One those fish that look far better in person than any picture could capture. Just make sure you bring temp. down gradually. Best of luck with a awesome pair o fish. What are you goon to keep with them?
