DESCRIPTION:

The Copperband Butterflyfish (Chelmon rostratus) is one of the most sought-after and elegant reef fish in the marine hobby. Its long snout, golden bands, and graceful swimming make it a standout in any display tank. Often considered a challenging species, TSM Aquatics takes the difficulty out of the equation by offering fully quarantined, conditioned, and actively eating Copperband Butterflyfish before they reach your aquarium.

Each Copperband is carefully acclimated to a variety of frozen foods including mysis shrimp, spirulina brine, bloodworms, and clam on the half shell ensuring long-term health and easier transition into your home reef.
