Description
The Chaetodon guttatissimus, also known as the Dot Dash Butterfly - Blue, is a captivating species that brings a vibrant burst of colour to any aquarium. This unique species is a remarkable addition to any fish-only tank. Its scientific name, Chaetodon maculatus, alludes to its distinctive feature - a pattern of dots and dashes that embellish its striking blue body. This species is not for the novice, requiring an intermediate level of care. However, the reward is a breathtaking sight of the Dot Dash Butterfly - Blue gracefully navigating its surroundings in the aquarium. Observing its natural behaviour is truly fascinating. The Dot Dash Butterfly - Blue is an omnivorous species, flourishing on a diverse diet.

This will ensure that it receives all the necessary nutrients it needs to flourish. This species hails from the Western Indian Ocean, a region renowned for its rich biodiversity. The Dot Dash Butterfly - Blue is a testament to the beauty and diversity of marine life in this region. Although this species is rarely seen in the wild, it is not exclusive to TMC. However, its limited availability makes it a highly sought-after addition to any aquarium. The Dot Dash Butterfly - Blue is not a seasonal species, meaning it can be appreciated all year round. Its wild origin adds to its rarity and appeal. In conclusion, the Chaetodon guttatissimus is a stunning species that will make a fantastic addition to any fish-only tank. Its unique colouration, intriguing behaviour, and specific dietary requirements make it a fascinating species to care for. With the right care and attention, this species will flourish in your aquarium, providing endless enjoyment and interest.
