Default Ocellated Butterfly

I just got an ocellated butterfly today. I been searching on the net about this fish but I am not getting to much info.

I been told that it is a reef safe butterfly. I am wondering if is as picky as the copperband? I had to copperbands before with no much luck

I would like to hear form you your experiences with the ocellated butterfly

Thanks

I assume Parachaetodon Ocellatus ?
I've found 4 species (all different) under the common name given

I'm going to guess you're temporarily being ignored because you bought then asked. Never do that...it kind of defeats the purpose of asking in the first place

Anyway, I'm sorry, but I have no input except from what I've heard butterfly fish in general are nippy towards coral and almost always clams.

Care

Hopefully those are the right fish ^
