| Fast Facts |
This anthias is one of the hardier members of the genus, although they can be delicate shippers. It must be kept in a spacious tank with optimal water quality. Provide it with plenty of hiding places and do not add it to a tank with any remotely aggressive tankmates. However, once it acclimates, it can take care of itself (that is, it can be kept with moderately pugnacious species like pygmy angels and small dottybacks, but until it acclimates, it can be wimpy). If you want to have a group, they should only be housed in a large tank of over 100 gallons. They will do fine singly.
