I believe so (I don’t really focus on anthias personally however I do have some experience with the common species).
She's my latest addition. Shes a champ, super active and peaceful, fit right in, well received by the other females. Got a strong specimen. Eats a lot and looks great. I got her small 2". She is yellow, pink, purple, white and red. Beautiful. I was waiting for one for years, luckily they recently flooded the market but are almost sold out.How does the red saddled do with the others?
I've been looking to add one to my tank too.
I also only have a few different female anthias. Randall and Carberryi, wanted to add a red saddle to the mix too.
Tankstop has them in stock right now and I've had one in my cart for over week, just haven't pulled the trigger yet.
thoughts on them?
I don't think they will form a harem if they are all different species, but I'm not 100% on that.I just want to know if one of them is going to become a male and dominate the group of females, because then it switches from an all female group to a harem, which in turn has requirements that my tank is not able to meet (size).

From the info you gave I would say that perhaps the Carberryi could be an issue due to its semi-agressive nature and the fact that its already well established in the tank when the red-saddled is introduced. Being a shoaling fish, she will try to be part of the group and if someone "local" doesnt accept her it will be a problem.
I never had a Carberryi, so I don't know from experience, I personally would avoid mixing with semi-agressive species to help them acclimate faster and start eating to increase the chance of success, specially with the smaller, peaceful species.
