Also a funny thing about this is that other fish
that would normally never eat aiptasia will see the
coper banded butterfly eating one, and take it a way
and eat it themselves.

They also love worms.

Often people will purchase a fish, and then trade it in later. Coper
banded butterfly fish are a good candidate for that. Let someone else
use them for aiptasia removal after your tank has been cleaned out. :-)

Coper banded butterfly fish take care of them pretty quickly though.

The problem with that is that the copper band usually starves after
eating all the anemones.

If you torture the data long enough, eventually it will confess
