Copperband Butterfly Pic!

Hi All!

This is a pic of my beautiful copperband butterfly that I purchased to rid my tank of aiptasia which it did with the help of three peppermint shrimp.

Very nice looking CB! I was never lucky enough to have my shrimp eat the aiptasia and had to inject them. Nice when nature takes it's course and no chemicals are needed!

I wish they rented those aiptasia killers. Beautiful fish!

Gotta be my all-time favorite fish and you captured it nicely.

Thanks Johnny!

Very beautiful copperband Woodstock!! Gotta love a butterfly!

Have always liked them, but will they eat all the tube worms & other "feathery" things in the tank?

 

[Montanareefer]

Hey BoomerD! They will eat all your little feather dusters and probably the bigger ones but I was willing to pay the price for this beautiful fish and have no regrets for doing so!

 

[Woodstock]

Yep, feather dusters are like candy to them!

That's the problem with introducing species to eradicate things. If we could only train them to eat a specific diet. Where are those shock collars when you need'em? LOL

:smirk:

PS Great looking fish guys!

[Witfull]

i think he has his eye on the xmas worm....

 

[Montanareefer]

Hey Witfull! I noticed that after I took the pic a few months ago and transferred the christmas tree worm to my wife's reef tank!

 

[Mary]

Great close up Johnny! I bet it's nice to have his and hers tanks!!!

 

[Montanareefer]

Yeah Mary it is pretty neat as we both get to enjoy a hobby together and go check out what is at the LFS. If something doesn't work in her tank it is transferred to mine and frags get placed from one tank to another! Her tank is a 20 gallon mini-reef and my is an 80 gallon reef tank. We have fun with it!
