reefman225gal Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Chaetodon octofasciatus ( Eightbanded Butterflyfish) ? often exhibits some color variation over its range. Link to comment

jonrx Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Where did you buy that? Scold the LFS. That thing is a STRICT coralivore. ONLY eats coral polyps and will likely be dead within a week. Link to comment
