Tassled Filefish Chaetoderma pencilligera
This fish usually lives in weedy areas on rocky reefs where it needs its unusual camouflage. It tends to be shy when first added to the tank and will have a difficult time adjusting if kept with more belligerent tankmates. Must have at least one suitable shelter site. Will usually not bother fish tankmates, with the possible exception of members of its own or related kinds. Do not keep with fishes that may nip off its skin flaps (ie. pufferfishes, triggerfishes).
Feed a mixed diet of meaty foods, including chipped shrimp, squid, clams and fish. Also feed frozen rations with marine algae and vitamin enriched foods. Feed no fewer than 3 times a day.
