Racoon Butterfly Fish

[KAPFishous]

Can anyone help me decide which fish (besides clowns) can cohabit with anemones, and other Non-fish animals? I have a Racoon Butterfly that I am thinking of returning due to the unfortunate fatality of a nice anemone that I had . I would love to add another anemone or two... Another unfortunate is that the LFS didn't "not" recommend the guy when I bought him (bought together).

Any help is appreciated.

BTW... I have a 44 gal, with 3 clowns and the Butterfly.

most butterflies are natural anemone predators.

A dwarf angel would be a nice edition.

Thanks for the suggestion.... will try my luck with the angel. Like I said, unfortunately the LFS didn't offer any help - perhaps due to inexperienced staff. I have had the butterfly for a few weeks now, hopefully they will accept the killer back .

Again, thanks for the help!!!

hey Kappy,
try these websites for more enemies and friends of anemones.....just so you could get a little more info before returning your butterfly and when picking out other fishes if you should pick more from that lfs (evidently you'll need as much info as you can get before making other purchases from there). Maybe this weekend we could check out that "wood" fish place, they seem to be more SW oriented and you might find a better selection of what you're looking for.

First things first, You do know I am partial to the Angels too....
This first site is some different and very colorful Angels to choose, as you can see, there are plenty.
Some Dwarf Angels

Check these sites too, they seem to have some valuable info for the anemones as far as enemies and different clowns you can choose from:

Several Clowns
