I know that mixing various anthias can be risky. However I have 5 Red Saddled (P. flavoguttatus) in quarantine. In my 6 foot 130 gal tank I have 5 Lyretail anthias (P. squamipinnis) with some tangs and dwarf angels. In my 4 foot 75 gal tank I have one Bicolor Anthias (P. bicolor) with 2 tangs, a lemonpeel angel and a small Surf damsel that is not aggressive.

Which tank would be best to add these into, if any of them:cool:?
 
They should be ok with the bicolors. Bicolors are slightly more aggressive than flavoguttatus, but squamipinnis are even more so.
