Oldsalt01 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Read up on Paki’s. Then think about it harder. They need lots of swimming room, eat stony corals, and certainly require stable, mature (1year or older) systems. Yah, they’re beautiful, but definitely not recommended for relatively new reefers. Butterfly’s as a whole can be labor intensive as their nutritional needs can be very narrow. In the end, it’s your decision. 1 Quote Link to comment
mitten_reef Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Isn’t your tank still crashing? 🤔. Might wanna try to get that under control, let alone buying any more fish. 5 Quote Link to comment
