Description
The reef-dwelling threadfin butterflyfish makes a beautiful addition to a saltwater aquarium. Its bright colors and bold accents easily make it the focal point of the tank. Feeding on algae, the threadfin butterflyfish noses its way into reef crevices and nips away at the coral. This behavior plays an important part in its natural habitat, but in captivity, it is best kept with live rock rather than coral.
