The Redtail Butterflyfish, known scientifically as Chaetodon collare, boasts a disc-shaped body that enables agile navigation through the complex coral landscapes they call home. Adults can reach up to 18 centimeters in size, and their distinct caudal fin—edged in a striking red—is an identifying characteristic of the species. Their bodies are built for precision, with a snout designed to pick food between the coral branches, making them integral players in the health of coral ecosystems. The uniqueness of their form, particularly their size and shape, is not just an aesthetic marvel but also an evolutionary trait that supports their survival and the biodiversity of their marine environment.
