Copper Banded Butterfly fish are difficult to acclimate, most do not make it. It's not a fish I would buy for the purpose of eating Aiptasia. If down the line you want another type of common anemone such as Bubble Tip Anemones, they will be at risk secondary to the CBB fish, these fish eat anemones.

Welcome! Filefish did te trick for me, but i also know it's not a certain thing they will eat the aiptasia. The can also start nipping corals later on wich mine hasn't done yet, i just make sure he is well fed at all times
Next to that, i am not sure is a filefish is going to be a problem with that puffer you have, but that is just a thought, someone with experience about those two fish should chime in.

I'd say enjoy the journey! It's a beautifull one!

Thank you for your help I may be getting the file fish next right now I got the copperband butterfly I call him copper I talked to the fish store down from $57 to $35 and I'm trying to see how he does right now he has not touched the StuffBut we will see I was told when I asked at the fish store about that question that the file fish nor the butterfly fish would bother the puffer because it is a small pea puffer yellow and black yellow with black spots which always seems to be puffed up? Any ideas
