Looking to add to my reef. Anyone have any experience with these in a mixed reef? I've heard they are reef safe but looking for responses from people that have kept them. Can you keep 2-3 in the same tank?

Thanks

I dont have one but i love butterflyfish and from my research they are one of the safest.

I had one years back, did not eat any corals, but wouldn't eat anything else either :(

Make sure you see it eating prepared foods before buying. Water quality also needs to be pristine and stable to keep these fish healthy and eating.

There are two species. Which one are you considering?
