adding a different kind of anthias

The bimacs have some color

The sunburst went well. I caught two tangs and a big trigger made room for more anthias trying 5 red bar anthias all females. Will see if the others accept them. I will try the same way putting them in feed the fish and turn the lights off. Fingers crossed. Then the tank will be done. Will get a picture of the new ones here is one that was online I think it is a male

You guys are making me really want anthias now, such a pain how I can’t keep up with their feeding though.

 

[robert serafino]

When I first get them I feed them twice a day then just once a day. On the weekend they get more. I have had them coming up on a year and they are fat as can be.

Here is picks they might not be red bars. Let me know if you know what kind. The first pick top left. It is cool now looks like the reef were they live.

They look like a mix of lyretails, bicolor and something else but I can’t tell what the third one looks like

They could be red bars, is it possible for a whiter photo?

 

[robert serafino]

When I get home there is a tiny red bar on the side you can barely see it

Should be a Red barred anthias then.

 

[robert serafino]

This is with whiter light it is hard to see the little red bar.

How bright do you keep your lights? I've always seen Pink Square Anthias lose their color in bright tanks.
