Description
Chaetodon flavacoronotus/Tinkeri The Tinker Butterfly is one of the rare, deep water fish endemic to Hawaiian waters. It is found at depths well below 100 feet, particularly in areas where black coral (Antipathes) is abundant. Because of its rarity and difficulty for collecting it is an extremely expensive fish. For those where expense is not a factor, this fish is definitely a center piece for an aquarium. This Butterfly remains fairly small, only averaging a length of about six inches. Like most fish in the Butterfly Fish Family they feed on small animal and plant life that they pick off the reef. With care they can adjust well to tank life.
