Squareback Anthias Male (Pseudanthias pleurotaenia)

This Anthias like other Anthias do better in packs of females and one male. If the male dies one of the females will morph and take over the males place. The females are yellow while the males are a pink color. They are semi-aggressive and will need an aquarium of at least 100 gallons as they like plenty of room to swim. Lighting would need to be on the lower side. This Anthias can reach up to 7 inches. Their diet consists of mysis, brines, flake, and high quality pellets.

This fish is guaranteed for live arrival.
