Four spot butterflyfish

With a little changing of the fins and colored, this pretty little butterflyfish. This fish family is so beautiful and most just stand out among the other fish. This particular species is one of the several types that are virtually always encountered in a pair. They turn listing to one side as they swim away darting from side to side a bit and using coral ledges to hide. At night the butterflies sleep in or under coral.

That is such a striking model! So realistic! I think a few such models would make a great mobile!

Thank you !!!! I think a group of the them would be cool mobile or hanging below a shelf ... They are not too hard to make although the front is a bit fiddly and cottton needed inside to avoid unfixable denting, fun
