Copperband Butterflyfish
Chelmon rostratus
Copperband Butterfly · Beaked Coral Fish
The most reef-popular butterflyfish, prized for eating Aiptasia pest anemones. Copperbands have a distinctive long snout and bold orange-and-white vertical bands. They can be finicky eaters — look for specimens already eating frozen food. One of the few butterflies considered conditionally reef-safe.
