The Yellowhead Butterflyfish is an uncommon butterflyfish distinct in appearance, demonstrating a large amount of white colouration.
The Yellowhead Butterflyfish will do best in a 450 litre or larger aquarium aquascaped with a generous amount of live rock and ample swimming space. The ideal setup is a mature system with excellent water quality and brisk water movement, housing other similar-sized peaceful fish.
Yellowhead Butterflyfish are solitary in nature and tend to demonstrate territorial behavior towards conspecifics as well as other butterflyfish species. Only one specimen should be housed per aquarium unless introduced to the aquarium at the same time as a male and female pair. Yellowhead Butterflyfish are not recommended for the reef aquarium as they will eat most stony corals, a few soft corals, and invertebrate species that inhabit live rock.
Similar to other Butterflyfish, Yellowhead Butterflyfish may require extra attention when first acclimating to the home reef aquarium. The diet of the Yellowhead Butterflyfish should include various meaty preparations including frozen, pellet and flake food.
