Bennetti butterflyfish availability

[Tdog4413]

I asked this question ok n Friday and am doing it again. Does anyone here know where to get Bennetti butterfly? Yes I know they are corallivorous and yes I know this can be difficult but I dont care. I have cared for these fish in the past with sucess(I kept two alive for 2 years and had a power outage which caused there death as it was winter time) PLEASE IF ANY KNOW PLEASE TELL ME WHERE.
Thanks guys

i think they are sporadically available on DD, and if you wanted im sure your lfs could ask wholesalers if they have any, and put you on a waiting list as they are unlikely to be high demand, but infrequently collected so it could be a while

I replied to the previous thread but I will reiterate that I would find a direct importer. The LFS I worked at for years imported direct from Sri Lanka and these were always available. If you are only dealing with sources that go through wholesalers it will be hard to find them.
