Hemitaurichthys polylepis hard to find?

I've been looking for a yellow zoster / pyramid butterfly for some time now for my reef.

I would actually consider a pair or trio, but I am not certain I have room (I have heard 7", but 5" seems more realistic).

I would like to hear from butterfly experts on whether a pair/trio is possible, or whether I should stick to one.

I have heard anecdotal evidence that butterfly fishes do better in pairs or groups, and I know Hemitaurichthys polylepis is a shoaling fish in the wild.

They aren't expensive, but I seem to have a very hard time finding them.

Does anyone have any feedback or ideas on where to look?

Matt
