3 Anthias not Getting Along

[FSOL]

Hello guys,


I had 2 anthias in my tank (I think one m and one f) which were doing good. I added a third anthias (sunburst) and it won't come out from behind the rocks. I'm not sure if it's a m or f, but would that make a difference?
I'm not sure if the other two are forcing it to stay behind rocks, or if it's another issue.

Any experts, speak up

Thanks

sunbursts are really shy species, so if they are being bullied, they will hide for a long time. what are the other two anthias-same species? Mixing anthias is very tricky except in large aquariums- you may need to remove th new addition befoer he is lost.

it's a 180g (6x2x2) tank. The other two species, I know one is a blue eyes (Pseudanthias squamipinnis) anthias, and the other I have no clue. It's kinda big in size, has very nice pink and faint purple coloration on its body.
