The spotfin butterflyfish is a butterflyfish found in the western Atlantic Ocean, in the Gulf of Mexico and most commonly found in the Caribbean Sea. The name is derived from the dark spot on the fish's dorsal fin. The spotfin butterfly fish can grow up to 6–8 inches. Spotfin butterfly fish are very territorial and will kill each other if put in close conditions.
