The anthias arrived healthy and showed vibrant coloration. They’ve been in my 75-gallon reef tank for two months and are active and well-fed. The blue eyes stand out clearly. I appreciate the clear description and accurate size.
Alan Bell –
Good color and active behavior. I noticed they’re slightly more active than other anthias. Tank has plenty of rockwork, which helps with their movement and security. Slightly aggressive toward smaller fish, but manageable.
Eric Campbell –
Excellent quality fish. The blue eyes and blood-orange hue are vivid. They’ve adapted well to the tank and swim freely. I’m happy with the care level and the size provided.
