I am wondering if the Black and White Bannerfish (H. acuminatus) or Bannerfish (Heniochus spp.) in general can serve as a good utility fish in tanks. Recently I have taken to the importance of getting fish that can do something productive for my tank. I will have a Foxface, Yellow Tang, and Yellow Eye Kole Tang as my primary sources of algae control. The angelfish can also help.
I’ve heard from a couple places that Heniochus are algae eaters, Aiptasia killers, and bug eaters. Have you, in your experience, found that to be true?
(I’ve seen quite a few people get the CBB for Aiptasia control and flatworm eating but they’re too difficult of a fish to keep while the Bannerfish is much easier.)
