A Dream Fish Comes To Town!
I now own my pièce de résistance! A fish I have been waiting a very long time to get my hands on! Something I have dreamed of and drooled over. I absolutely adore the Roaps family of butterflies and while Tinkers and Mitratus are a little out of my budget range, this gorgeous guy was not! @Deerpark Aquarium is the bestest of the best!

May I introduce to you, Burger, the chaetodon burgessi or Burgess Butterflyfish :inlove:
