nice pic's, im not trying to flame you but butterfly's are very hard to keep, and need a established and sort of large tank, so unless you plan on putting them in a established tank they may not last too long

Fedukeford, I disagree with you last post. Longnosed butterflys are very hardy fish. Dont let its delicate looks fool you.

The butterfly may not last long for several reasons:
1. frozen brine does NOTHING for a fish
2. they need more live rock then that so they can forage for natural foods as well. Just my opinions, no flaming involved.

3. WAY to many fish so soon after the cycle. Especially for the angel and long nose. If that is an angel that is.

1. its kills them

Try to feed Nori, algae sheets and preparations made for angels or butterflies. And then instead of the brine feed mysis a couple of times a week for the butteflies.
3.Too many fish if ur tank was established for a year IMO

not any better unless they are made for these types of fish. And if you want to keep them alive long term you need to try some of the foods i mentioned and do some research.

Understand exactly what you mean, but alot of fish need specific diets, so you may need to take care of that.
