White face butterfly chaetodon mesoleucus

[Ridem32]

Does anyone know anything about the white face butterfly chaetodon mesoleucus? Are they hardy? I know they are rare! Does anyone have one? If so please let me know! What would be a fair price for one? I found one for $600 deal or no deal? Thanks for any help or replies! I'm very new to RC & even newer to butterfly's
Thanks Michael

If you are in the states you should pay no more than $150, I'm not sure why they are charging $600...
They are like any other butterfly if you get a healthy specimine that is eating it will do fine. If it comes in with disease and isn't eating you have an uphill battle. It will eat coral so you should only consider this fish if you have a FOWLR or if you don't care if it eats your corals.
