Butterflyfish

Chaetodon ocellatus

Size: juveniles 1-2"; adults to 6"

Habitat: inlets and rivers, late in the season

Notes: The adult fish is shown above, the juvenile below.

The best time to view or capture these fishes is at night when they are asleep. During the day they are wary and very quick. Nighttime coloration is completely different from daytime - dark vertical bars and blotches over the entire body.
