Description
The Eight Line Butterflyfish has an oval white to yellow body with eight spaced apart black lateral lines running down its sides. The nose is short and pointed.
 
The Eight Line Butterflyfish requires extra attention due to its feeding habits which are coral and other small organisms in the wild. House in a well-established system with peaceful fish, plenty of live rock and sandy substrate.
 
To initiate feeding, offer a variety of small frozen foods such as mysis shrimp, enriched brine shrimp and cyclopeeze. Train your butterflyfish to eat Formula One Small Pellets or Flakes for a healthy diet.
