The Raccoon Butterflyfish arrived healthy and active. It has been in my 75-gallon tank for three months and is very peaceful. It doesn’t bother other fish and blends well with the coral. Easy to care for, perfect for a beginner reef setup.
Robert McLean –
I bought this fish for my first reef tank. It’s calm and doesn’t show aggression. The size is larger than expected, but it’s within the mature range. Feeding is straightforward and it stays in one area of the tank.

Great addition to my reef. The fish is vibrant and active. I’ve kept it with clownfish and small gobies, and there’s no conflict. It’s a beautiful species that fits well in a well-maintained tank.
