Copperband Butterflyfish Feeder

Targeted Feeding. Less Competition.

Give your Copperband Butterflyfish a better opportunity to eat without having to compete with every fish in the tank.

The Moonlight Reef Copperband Butterflyfish Feeder is designed around the copperband's long, narrow snout and natural picking behavior. Food is placed inside the feeding chamber, where the copperband can reach through the openings while many larger or more aggressive tankmates have limited access.

The result is a dedicated feeding station that helps keep food concentrated in one place and gives your copperband more time to feed.

Designed for Copperbands

Copperband Butterflyfish can be deliberate feeders, especially when housed with fast, aggressive eaters.

The feeder's openings allow the copperband to use its narrow snout to reach food inside the chamber while making it more difficult for many competing fish to simply grab the entire meal.

This creates a focused feeding area where your copperband can pick at food naturally.

Easy to Use

Add your copperband's preferred food to the feeding chamber and mount the feeder to the aquarium glass.

Position it in an area your copperband regularly visits and allow the fish to reach the food through the feeding openings.

Once feeding is complete, simply remove the feeder, rinse it, and it's ready for the next meal.

Built for a Difficult Feeder

Copperband Butterflyfish are beautiful additions to a reef, but feeding them alongside aggressive tankmates can be challenging.

A dedicated feeding station won't make a copperband eat food it doesn't recognize, but it can give an established eater a more controlled place to feed with less competition.
