Feeding Copperband Butterfly

[tangdude]

I wanted to know an opinion on what to feed a coralbanded butterfly. I just gave him a black mussel and some brine shrimp and he ate that. He certainly won't eat anything flake though. Anything else I can feed him ???

You could try some plankton or bloodworms.

I feed my copper band brine shrimp .

Oh and I almost forgot he or she will eat your featherdusters. If youever have any aiptasia(brown anemonies)he will help keep them in check also.

Darn then my feather duster is probably going to die then huh.. It hasn't been out since I got the butterfly..I should have done my research before buying this fish...Oh well.. Thanks for the advice!!!

You should also feed mysis shrimp, they are much better then brine.
