Hi All! Just visited my LFS and saw this beautiful fish there. I spoke to them about it and they said after 6 months or so, the natural instincts of the butterfly fish will kick in and it will start eating my corals. I have read that some people have had luck with the Tahitian Butterfly. After feeding on the aiptasia, it accepts meaty foods. Just wondering if any of you have had any luck with the pearlscale? Chaetodon xanthurus. Opinions are also welcome. I think I already know what's coming though. Thanks!
