Can anyone advice me which type of butterfly i can keep in my tank for long run? Favorite for home tank
 
I have a yellow longnose butterfly only had it three months though eats like a pig flakes and larrys reef frenzy
 
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.
