Butterfly fish in a reef?

[oil_fan]

In researching fish for 95 gallon which will become a reef, has anyone had success with adding in a butteryfly fish? Well other than CBB.

I have a Pyramid Butterfly and have never had a problem. Supposedly Pyramid's are one of the few reef-safe butterflies...

I have a longnose yellow butterfly. Never bothers the coral or the clam.

Obviously keeping them properly fed is good way of keeping them away from the corals.

And thanks everyone for your suggestions. I'll take a look at those breeds.

I haven't started it up yet. I'll probably getting it online in the next few weeks. Right now I only have 2 small fish in that tank. A yellow wrasse and longnose hawkfish.

I'm leaning towards an exquisite wrasse as my next fish and then the butterfly fish. After that I'll move my eibili dwarf angel fish and yellow stripe maroon into there. And then it's onto a couple of tangs.

At least that's where I'm leaning towards. And I still haven't even thought of what coral to put in there. Too many decisions!!! But it's fun to check everything out!!!
