I’ve kept Evan’s Anthias for six months in a 100-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and doesn’t bother the corals. The fish has grown to about 2.5 inches and is active during the day. Water parameters are stable, and I’ve had to monitor salinity and temperature closely. A good choice for experienced reef keepers.

The anthias arrived healthy and has been thriving in my 100-gallon tank. It’s not aggressive and blends well with the reef community. I’ve had to adjust lighting and flow slightly, but overall it’s a stable addition to the tank.
