Pakistan Butterflyfish Information The Pakistan Butterflyfish Chaetodon collare can be described as a beautiful fish that is widely found in the Indo-Pacific oceans. It's an absolute delight for divers and aquarists alike to observe due to its graceful swimming motion and beautiful hues. In nature, it dwells in shallower water at levels of between 10 and 50 feet (3 to 15 meters). Coral reefs are often home to it on the edges and slopes. However, it can also be found among rock reefs in which corals are scarce. The fish lays in a solitary position above its residence and doesn't seem to be scared by the attention of other divers. It is a medium-sized butterflyfish, with adults typically growing to 6 1/4 inches (16 cm) in length. The coloring and delicate cross-hatch patterning of the body are stunning. It has a deep chocolate brown body, which is laced with an intricate cross-hatch design with golden spots and is characterized by a prominent vertical white stripe that runs down its face across the cheek. Its most impressive feature is the striking orangish-red tail fin, which is seen at the rear of the adult. This pattern of color has resulted in a variety of common names like Red-tailed Butterflyfish Collare Butterflyfish, Redtail Butterflyfish, Brown Butterflyfish, Collared Butterflyfish and Pakistani Butterflyfish.
