    Thinking of eventually adding two of these in my 48x18x20 tank, is that too small of a tank for these guys? anyone keep these guys in a similar tank size before?

    this is also known as a black and white butterfly fish. I believe those dimensions would be a 75gal. tank? It should be ok in that size tank, but it is not reef safe, so if you have corals I would reconsider, if you only have a FOWLR then go for it. Looks like a really nice fish.
