Copperband Butterflyfish

I mostly don’t believe when sites say fish are guaranteed to eat especially with copper bands but I figured that I’d give it a try. It eats blood worms really well and has made it through my own 2 week quarantine with copper, still eating throughout the way. It seems to mostly only eat blood worms as a frozen food but has ate my other foods. It also picks at nori relatively aggressively when it wants to. Overall very happy with the fish itself.

I must have gotten the runt of the litter. Fish arrived healthy and swims but will not eat anything I put in the tank. No mysis, eggs, worms, nada….. will see how long it survives but I bought from here given the reputation of them eating frozen mysis but must have just gotten bad luck.

The Copperband Butterflyfish arrived disease free and conditioned. It began eating frozen foods the evening after arrival and days later eats voraciously. Reef Pro is the only vendor I will purchase fish from in the future!

fish came in great shape and eating , still doing well

My CBB came in a leaked-through box, however, there was still plenty of water and air in the bag for her. She was still really well colored and in a good disposition. Upon adding her to the tank, I have observed no glass surfing. She was immediately interested in my rockwork and was even picking at them. That evening, when I fed my regular mysis shrimp for the tank, she gobbled them up quick! Cannot recommend ReefPro enough! She looks to be nearly blind in one eye from what might be a genetic issue, but I like the character it adds to the fish
