Raccoon Fasciatus Butterflyfish (Chaetodon fasciatus)
The Raccoon Fasciatus Butterflyfish, also known as the Red Sea Raccoon Butterflyfish or Diagonal Butterflyfish, is characterized by its yellow-orange coloration, which is darker on the upper half of its body, and a distinctive black patch around its eyes. Its body is adorned with dark diagonal lines.
This peaceful fish can thrive in a 125-gallon or larger fish-only aquarium with other butterflyfish. However, it should not be placed in a reef tank as it will consume invertebrates.
If the Raccoon Fasciatus Butterflyfish is initially reluctant to eat, offer it a small anemone. Otherwise, provide a varied diet of meaty foods, crustacean flesh, mysis shrimp, and frozen preparations several times daily.
