Lyretail anthias group in acclimation boxes

[Kayvon]

I'm about ready to move my 4 lyretail anthias out of QT and into my display tank. The box is 14" x 4" x 4". I have a small maroon clown, small blue tang, and a medium copperband butterfly right now. Should I stick em in my acclimation box beforehand or do you think that they'll be ok?

You could do that for a little while or add them at night right before your lights go off for the day. The only fish I would be concerned about being aggressive is the maroon clown but you're also adding 4 fish at once so it will probably be okay.

I would just add them to the display. Any aggression will be diffused between the 4 of them.

I agree with the others put them in the display
After dark
Keep a eye on the maroon
By the way my favorite anthias
