Orange Klein's Butterfly (Chaetodon kleini)
Description
Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.
The Klein's Butterfly will make a unique addition to fish only aquariums. With ample space they will adapt well to life in an aquarium, which makes them the ideal starter butterfly. These can be kept in groups of fish, including other butterflies. They won't do well with fish that are very aggressive, but they will also nip and pick at fish that are very timid. Be sure to have a top on the aquarium to prevent the butterfly from jumping out if frightened. We don't recommend placing the Kleini's in reef aquariums where there are leather corals because they are likely to make a snack out of them. This butterfly will grow to be about 6" in size and will need ample swimming space. The Kleini has a golden yellow posterior and alternating bands of white, brown and black by their head.

Directions
ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
