    Thank you! They are female lyretail anthias. One is in the process of turning male. They are so much fun!!! SO active and bright. They get everybody out swimming nonstop.

    Very nice, I had recently picked up a pair of beautiful ingnitus anthias that went belly up on my after a week :cry: I'm pretty sure it's the LFS I got them from, this was the 3rd purchase in a row that didn't make it from them but all the other fish I've bought from other LFS' during that time are doing great in my tank. Now I just need to find some new ones from a trusted LFS.

    Anthias can be very tricky. I did a lot of research, and pretty much everything said to get either lyretail or bartlett's anthias. They are the hardiest. Also, make sure they are eating really well before you bring them home, because they can be really hard to get eating.
