ehh it say African Butterflyfish are intolerant of other surface fish
I would love to see a video of one off live. my own won't even look at pellets, floating foods. butterflys and needles can be kept together. the needles get large enough the butterflys can't really push them around much. and the needles tend ime to hang out like gars do, lower in the upper water column. where butterflys are almost constantly up at the surface. My O is a giant jerk otherwise i would add butterflys in w/ him and the needle.
i would expect minor territorial issues due to both being topwater fish, but should be fine, keep us posted.
i guess you can but needle nose are expensive compared to butterfly
but i dont know what petstore would sell butterflys

butterfly fish are pretty common in chain stores like pet supermarket, etc. and are easily obtained since they are on most wholesale lists these places use
