I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this fish. It is similar to the copper band butterfly except it has brown or darker vertical stripes instead of yellow and it has a smaller nose. I was reading and they say it is hardier than the copper band, and they are more likely to eat frozen foods. I am thinking about getting him to help control the aiptasia problem I am having. Anyone have any experience with this fish?

good luck finding one. They are few and far between. Supposedly hardier than normal copperbands, but that doesnt mean theiy are hardy. Good luck.

Only place I've seen them is the marine center and they sent me the wrong fish :( Imported from Australia only and not very popular in the hobby given their cost relative to the CBB.
