Will they be aggressive?

[TangsRLife]

So I have a male Madives anthia for a while and want to get one or two females for him. I’ve had him for over a year and his colors are still there and haven’t faded. I currently have a Naso gang, yellow eye kole, two clownfish, starry blenny, and blue velvet damsel. Will adding females make the male super aggressive at all?

Not sure from experience but i was at my lfs and I just grabbed a couple female lyretail anthias and was told you would want several as in 3 or more females per male and he still may be aggressive. I guess in the wild they are in large schools.

There is a possibility that he will kill them or just chase them around and flash. Definitely use acclimation box to be safe.

Buy more than 2 or 3 females for a male that is that established.
