Pseudanthias fasciatus

Here's my Red Stripe...

 

[SDguy]

Wow, he looks like quite the bruiser!

 

[discotu]

no doubt...he owns the tank!

 

[poknsnok]

hey lets bump this.. I have 6 fasciutus and want to add another species. they are big and Im concerned about agression from the male. i love the ignitus but they seem difficult and are much smaller.. what do you think?

 

[SkyPapa]

Sold as Dispar, been told they're Ignitus.
Lyretail in pic also.

My newly (as of Yesterday) acclimated Divers Den female Bimac

Talk about WYSIWYG! Shameless plug I know.

She came out a little bit today and is absolutely gorgeous!

 

[ConcreteReefer]

can someone properly ID this for me- I bought 3 females & 1 male, so far 1 of the females has died.. They are difficult to feed.

I think they are "Luzon" Anthias (Pseudanthias luzonensis) 90% sure-


this is the best pic i could get (for now)

 

[ConcreteReefer]

That is the Male- see the red spot in his dorsal fin- just like this one from Divers den-

 

[adtravels]

good luck with that bimac, beauties but difficult to keep, defo need qt and deworming.

Got a good pic of the male this morning before my lights came on..
He's not eating like the rest of em' but he will take cyclopeeze..

 

[ConcreteReefer]

He's a bruiser male.. Just acts like a little beaatch, He hides in the rocks all day...

James & Sky Papa-- both def Ignitus.... Took me over a year, but I have a shoal now and I LOVE them!! They come within 1/2" of my hand when I feed and swarm around for a while if I'm in there doing something else. Lovely fish. They get up right at the water line (VERY BRIGHT LIGHT) sometimes and swim in the current, which I found surprising as they're not shallow water fish. They do spend most of their time in a typical "verticle" section of my reef that is somewhat shaded by a large arch--(scaped just for them!!). Anyway, I love them--second to only my Golden Angel pair.

Enjoy!

I love them too. Im working hard to achieve a shoal of them. I hope 8-10.. they are delicate but some of the most beautiful and interesting anthias around

 

[SDguy]

Yeah, I miss mine

 

[poknsnok]

SD what happened to them??

 

[SDguy]

Green plasma cannon carrying pathogen of unknown origin wiped them, and many of my other anthias, out

 

[poknsnok]

Wow.. keep that funk away from me

I still have my 4 male bartletts and 2 dispars. They dont have the deep color anymore though.
