The Blue Spot Plebeius Butterfly is unique in their coloration and appearance compared to other Butterflyfish. These can be kept in pairs as long as they are introduced simultaneously. Like most butterflies, we don't recommend placing them in reef aquariums because they are very likely to consume a variety of coral polyps. These will benefit from multiple feedings a day of frozen meaty foods. Adding algae to their diet will give them things to graze on, mimicking their wild eating behavior. This butterfly will grow to be about 6" in size and will need ample swimming space. They are a vibrant yellow coloration with a bright blue marking. The Blue Spot Plebeius has a black line that goes through its eyes and false eye spot. The dorsal fins are jagged and can get caught in nets. They are found in the Western Pacific inhabiting lagoons and outer reefs to 10 meters deep.
