Looking to rehome my Sunset Butterfly

[Subnautica]

This bad boy is eating my zoas (but leaves the mushrooms alone) so I'm looking to rehome him.

Very peaceful fish. Size is 3.5in. Might not tolerate bullies. Eating frozen food including mysis, cyclops, brine shrimp, and formula one.

I love the way the look and took a chance on a Pakistan butterfly. Thinking that I could train him to eat frozen food . Long story short...went fm 80% living coral to 20% but my tank was so new and corals were almost obliterated. By time I caught him my fish were completely stressed and the tank almost crashed.
Ich and velvet showed up but thankfully I had no fish loss. A lot of coral loss though!

Wow that was a nightmare! I'm glad you didnt lose any fish though. Next time you might wanna trap him inside a box. Just put a piece of coral in there and he might get in lol

Yeah I heard of that method. It makes the fish blind for a little bit.

Where did the Pakistan end up ?

I think he only nipped at them. But he nipped like every 3 minutes lol.

Anyway I gave him to another reefer. Mod please lock this thread if possible.
