    hello everyone
    i just got my
    copper band butterfly

    but i have been reading a lot of things, and now i do not think I'm ready for him.

    anyway i really do not think i have the right food food for him.

    i was told that people use bananas to feed them?

    what should i use, what is best.

    You may want to watch him with that anemone. As long as a clownfish is residing in the anemone is will probably be fine, but they have been known to eat larger anemones not just aiptasia.

    Just make sure to keep an eye on it because if it nips a anything and likes the taste it will continue to pick till the coral is gone or the fish is gone.What kind of corals do you have in your tank?
