we have a 2 to 2.5 inch heniochus butterfly that we would like to trade for a blue tang or a fish that is peaceful w/rays and sharks. we are new to marine life and trusted the LFS guy when he said it would not bother our ray or shark but he was wrong after seeing it pick on our baby ray {Mr. Steve} any advice would be appreciated. :angel:
thanks in advance

Heniochus butterflies are actually known as sometimes cleaner fish, so might have been cleaning versus picking, so not a bad thing unless it annoys the recipient.

we did read that but it is leaving marks on the ray and we think it is stressing him. is it common for a cleaner fish to leave marks? thanks again
