Chaetodon lunula

 

The Raccoon Butterflyfish is yellow-orange, but darker on the upper half of the body. It has a black patch around its eyes, with a broad white stripe posterior to it. Two black stripes bordered in yellow reach from the white stripe to the dorsal fin. This fish is often confused with the Red Sea Raccoon Butterflyfish. The Raccoon Butterflyfish is a peaceful fish that may reside in a 70 gallon or larger fish-only aquarium with other butterflyfish. It should not be kept in a reef tank since it will eat invertebrates and is deemed unsafe with corals.

 

When first acquired, it may prove difficult to feed. As usual, we will not ship one that is not eating. Once acclimated, it can be fed a varied diet several times daily
