The Auriga Butterflyfish is found in the Indo-Pacific region, particularly around coral reefs, where it feeds on small invertebrates and algae. It is a popular species in the aquarium trade due to its stunning appearance and interesting behavior, but can be challenging to care for due to its specialized diet and territorial nature.

Overall, the Auriga Butterflyfish is a fascinating and beautiful species that can add a unique and eye-catching element to any aquarium.
