Heniochus Black & White Butterflyfish
Raccoon Butterflyfish
Auriga Butterflyfish
Orange Butterflyfish
Red Sea Bannerfish
Singular Bannerfish
 
Is it a reef tank or a FOWLR? If a reef, pyramid or zoster (H. polyepsis or H. zoster). Some have luck with Heniochus dipheutes but they get pretty big.

Cool vid thanks for that. Better than a pic tells 1000 words. I like the pyramids better after having watched that.
