The Marginal Butterflyfish is fairly hardy and adapts well to life in an aquarium if acclimated properly. Most butterflies in this genus can be added in a group. They won’t do well with fish that are overly aggressive. Marginal Butterflyfish may also nip and pick at fish that are very timid.
Initially, Butterflyfish can be shy; making sure there are plenty of hiding places will help them acclimate. Butterflies are not recommended for reef aquariums because they are very likely to consume a variety of coral polyps.
Marginal Butterflyfish will benefit from multiple feedings per day, be sure to provide a varied diet of frozen meaty foods. Adding algae to their diet will give them things to graze on, mimicking their wild eating behaviour and improving their immune systems.
