Burgess x Tinker Butterflyfish
Snapshot: This beautiful hybrid is a cross between a Tinker and a Burgess Butterflyfish. They rock a mostly white body, splashed with gray or black spots, a cool diagonal black streak from dorsal to anal fin, and a flashy yellow or gray stripe slicing through their eye.
Other tidbits: Can grow up to 15cm or so. Native to the waters of the Indo-Pacific region.
Bare bones must know: Best suited to a live-rock fish only system. Top-notch water quality.
Aquarium set-up: Create an ideal environment by offering plenty of hiding spots, caves and crevices. Load up on live rock for primo hideouts from the glare. Maintain an aquatic utopia by nailing the basics: rock-solid water quality with top-notch filtration and routine partial water changes.
Feeding: Keep the butterflyfish menu diverse by serving up frozen or live treats like brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, and chopped seafood. Don't forget top-notch marine flakes or pellets for balanced nutrition.
AQT note: All our fish feast on a diet of seaweed, marine pellets, flakes and frozen treats under our care. Keep the feast going in your tank!
