Yep, it is. It is a long spine urchin.

Gorgeous fish....I love the colors.

The copper band is gorgeous! Its on my list of my "eventual" reef tank inhabitants. Not sure where this will go, due to the fact that Zaphod took the spot where my 90 gallon was going to eventually go . Thanks for sharing!

Yeah, copperband butterflies are extremely attractive fish. However, they are also very hard to keep. Make sure your tank is well established.

When you buy one, be sure to quarantine and make sure the fish is feeding on at least brine shrimp at the store. Ideally you want it feeding on squid, mysis, brine, and other goodies. Sometimes, they will not eat in captivity and slowly starve to death in a reef aquarium. Also, I recommend quarantining a CBB in hyposalinity or tank transfer method prior to adding it to your main display tank.

Finally, for the most part they are reef safe. There are some keepers who have had the copperband eat their trachyphyllia and acans. Mine has not eaten anything but aiptasia anemones, which are invasive pests.

Personally, it is one my most prized fish inhabitants.
