Other information
Like nearly all Butterfly fish this species require good water quality low in nitrate. Avoid aggression from existing tank mates when introducing it, this can stop them feeding, and difficult to get them eating again.
There are several species of Butterfly often sold as Pearlscale Butterflies, Chaetodon mertansii, and the rarely seen Chaetodon paucifasciatus sometimes called the Red Sea Pearlscale
