Batfish

Batfish are admired for their unique shape and the long, flowing fins of juveniles. However, they grow very quickly and lose their long fins as they mature, becoming large, disc-shaped fish. They require massive tanks and are generally peaceful, but they are not reef-safe as they will eat anemones and corals.
