Pakistani Butterfly

Pakistani or Red Tail Butterflyfish (chaetodon collare</em>)

Who has experience with these? Yes, I know http://www.wetwebmedia.com/Goodchaetodon.htm">they can nip corals</a>, but from what I'm reading, the prefered corals are sps, of which I have none. I'm more interested in fish than corals anyway, so whatever this and my queen angelfish nibble on will just not be a part of my display.

I'd love to have a pair. Just doing my research.

Ever owned this fish?

I havn't owned one but I heard they can be difficult to get eating. So if you do make sure they are eating at the store

They are beautiful fish! I was looking in to putting some in my 210. They are sometimes picky eaters apparently, but they are supposed to be pretty hardy once established.
