Description
The Raccoon Butterflyfish has a yellow body muted by numerous curvy lateral black stripes. It has a black band over the eyes followed by a white band.
The Raccoon Butterflyfish is peaceful with other fish outside its species. It is not a good choice for a reef tank because it will nip at corals and invertebrates. Provide lots of live rock for grazing and shelter spots for the Raccoon Butterflyfish. If it is reluctant to eat when first placed in the tank, put a small sea anemone in the tank to initiate feeding.
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.
