Copperbanded Butterfly with one of the new Chromis.
My laziness with changing water in the marine tank over the past year has meant that some of the corals have died off. I won’t be replacing them and I might one day end up with a fish only and live rock tank. Some aiptasia has popped up though, and they’re a pest more than anything else (they even look a bit freaky). I’ve enlisted the help of a Copperbanded Butterflyfish to do the cleaning up (they love eating aiptasia!). They are known as a hard to keep fish as most of them die once they run out of aiptasia to feed on but the dude I bought’s been feeding off marine flake, brine shrimp and pellets too so that’s great news (ie: he’s food trained!). Whilst I was at my Uncle Johns Shop (Beach Aquariums at Bondi Beach) I also picked up 3 more chromis which are schooling nicely in the tank.
