Product Description

The Black Back Butterflyfish, also
known as the Melannotus Butterflyfish, has a white body with a series
of black diagonal stripes on the sides. The fins are yellow and it has a
yellow face with a black eye band.
The
Black Back Butterflyfish should be the only butterflyfish, unless it
has a mate, in a 120 gallon or larger aquarium that has numerous hiding
places and plenty of room to swim. This species of Butterflyfish is not
considered reef safe.
The
Black Back Butterflyfish eats a variety of meaty preparations that
should incorporate a vitamin or color enhancing food to keep its colors
crisp. It eats soft corals in the wild.
