Rainford Butterfly (Chaetodon rainfordi)
The Rainford Butterflyfish is a slender, delicate species with a vibrant yellow body, blue vertical stripes, and a distinctive black eyespot near the tail. This species is notoriously difficult to keep due to its specialized diet, often including live coral polyps, making it unsuitable for reef aquariums. Best maintained by experienced aquarists in species-specific or FOWLR setups with ample live rock and natural grazing opportunities.
