Racoon Butterfly Fish

[youngskywalker]

Will they eat coral, cleaner shrimp, hermit crabs, or emerald crabs?

coral for sure

Probably one of the least reef safe bf's out there, but crabs and shrimp will be fine.

Corals and anenomes are their main diet in the wild.

I just put a rock with a bunch of large purple mushrooms in my tank and my racoon has not left the rock alone. He picked it clean in less than 5 minutes.

Expensive fish food

I believe they are known to eat shrimp and other inverts as well. Just click the "FISH" icon at the left and SWF. com will tell you they are not coral or invert safe.
