Here's one of my female lyretail. I got her from a friend of mine. I think the biggest secret to keeping them, aside from water quality, is feeding. In the ocean they feed throughout the day from the water column. In captivity this is hard to replicate but several small feedings throughout the day seems to keep them happy and healthy.
 
Pretty Anthia's guys, the blotchy looks so cool is that lighting or does he really look like that?
