Whats the easiest Anthias to keep

[Taipan]

Most, if not all anthias should be fed several times a day (high metabolism) - that's the theory. In practice; most of the anthias my friends and I have kept do well with feeding 1x or 2x a day.

My personal experience is only with Borbonius Anthias - not the easiest to acclimate and keep. I have no shame in admitting I lost 2 in the process of being successful with 3 (1 I kept; the other 2 went to friends - I'm the guinea pig/litmus test).

That being said; here's a list of hardier species that seem to do well from the conversations I've had with others (in no particular order) that should meet your criteria :

- Lyretail Anthias: Pseudanthias squamipinnis

- Carberryi Anthias: Nemanthias carberryi

- Squareback/Squarespot Anthias: Pseudoanthias pleurotaenia

Hope this helps. Cheers.
