Falcula Butterfly: - Chaetodon ulietensis

The Black-wedged Butterflyfish, Chaetodon falcula, is a species of butterflyfish (family Chaetodontidae).

It is found in the Indian Ocean, from eastern Africa south to Indonesia.

It grows to a maximum of 8 inches long.

Its shape is reminiscent of longsnout butterflyfish, though the snout is not as extremely prolonged and the pattern is very different.

The body is white with a series of narrow vertical dark grey lines and bright yellow and orange over the back, dorsal fin, anal fin and caudal fin.

There are two well-defined black saddles on the back, and as usual the characteristic black eye-band of Chaetodon is present.


Minimum tank size: 75 Gallon


Feeding and Diet:

Carnivorous, feed marine fish, crustacean flesh, mysid shrimp and frozen preparations.


Reef Compatibility:

This species feeds on a wide-range of invertebrates, including some of the species we attempt to maintain in the reef tank.


Level of Care: Moderate
