Anthias

[gumbo33]

I love to keep this kind of fish but they keep dying on me. What do you feed them?

i have a ignitus antharis (kind of a smaller one) i feed mine shrimp, just like all my other fishes.....

my lyretail anthias love rods food and cyclopeze

 

[scrapz]

how many times per day were you feeding it? these fish require feedings at least 2x a day

I got my fathead eating freeze dried krill, mysis, brine and cyclopse. Only eats the small pieces though. I try to feed 2-3 x a day and has been growing fast.

Although regular feedings are advatageous, it is unlikely that the food you are providing is causing their demise. Most likely to be parasites of one form or another. They love Anthias.

lyretail are the best to start.. as well as dispar. be wary of your supplier.
