    If you can get bigger, why wouldn't you?
    I've never kept anthias so I won't comment on a minimum tank size, However I believe some (if not all) require multiple feedings throughout the day.

    Well if I can get bigger I will but i don't know if I will be able to. :/
    And yes they do I have feeder that feeds twice a day a mix of pellets and flakes, a mix of carnivore and herbivore food twice a day and I usually feed a frozen mix everyday so they will get. Multiple meals :)

    I had always heard that trios of Anthias need 125+ gallons, so that's what I based my response off of :p
