EUGENE THERON - 2007-07-26 how lucky can you be? I caught a gorgeous gussy at The Heads Knysna (month January 2007). No problem with teaching it to eat. Also a handnet and snorkel and goggles. Thank you. EUGENE
Kevin Jordan - 2003-09-06 Very pleased to say that i captured a specimen of this butterfly. location : Durban, North Pier, South Africa. Date of capture : 31st August 2003. Size : approx 6cm in length. Method of capture : Snorkel,mask and hand held net. Regulations here do not allow for capture of fish with scuba gear. ( licence is required to capture and keep local marine specimens )
comment : Local name as per Smiths Fishes is a Gorgeous Gussy. I put the fish into my main display tank shortly after arriving home from the dive, within two hours the fish was pecking at the Tetra-bits i had put in the tank. The following morning the fish was eating a bit of the Tetra-bits, six days later he has made his presence in the tank well known to the other occupants and fights vigorously for food.
The Peppered Butterflyfish is a pretty little thing... sprinkled with pepper-like spots!
