Description
The Yellow Pyramid Butterflyfish or Zoster Butterflyfish has a divided white and yellow body color. The white forms a triangle or pyramid that points up to the dorsal fin. The head area is shaded dark.
The Yellow Pyramid Butterflyfish is a great all-around butterflyfish that adapts well to captivity and will feed on a wide range of food. The pyramid Butterflyfish can be kept in pairs or small groups. Due to the potential size and active nature of the Pyramid Butterflyfish have lots of good swimming area and live rock for grazing and shelter. The Pyramid Butterflyfish may nip at coral and invertebrates but generally safe in reef tank if fed well.
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.
