Butterfly Fish in 60 Gallon Reef

[Bnortz]

Hello,
Are there any a species of butterfly's that i could keep in my 60 gallon reef and is hardy and not too hard to take care of?

Thanks,
Ben

I have a Klien's in a 58 for 3 months planning on putting him in the 135. As of now no problems with him

I am in love with the Atlantic longnose butterfly! Stays small and moderately reef safe. They will pick on gorgs though /: Best bet is to feed them frequently (2-3 times daily) but this is true for ANY butterfly you house in a reef!

I had a Kleins that I really liked, great for apistia control. Then he turned on my LPS and the couple SPS that I had. The only thing he left alone was the softies. He had to go.

Yeah i was looking at the Atlantic long nose. I might consider getting one!

Little drab IMO,pyramid butterfly's are pretty AND reef safe, an unusual combination.
