General information on Red Sea Bannerfish The Red Sea Eritrean Butterflyfish is a quite robust butterfly that can do great in a calm aquarium. The body of this fish is elongated white and has many vertical black lines as well as a massive red band that covers the front of the fish. The ideal aquarium for Red Sea Eritrean Butterflyfish should be at least 70 gallons or more and include plenty of live rock that can be used for hiding and for grazing. They are known to be aggressive towards fish with similar body size and shape and also towards the members of their species. They should be kept in a calm aquarium with fish that are not aggressive.
