diffrent anthias species

[puck3]

is it ok to mix lyretail anthias and barletts anthias in the same tank?

 

[dzfish17]

Its going to depend on the tank size... right?

 

[Reefnub]

Depends on tank size and I wouldn't mix Bartletts with Lyretails. Bartletts are too aggressive and Lyretails are a little bit aggressive. I'd get 1 Bartlett and mix a different species of Anthias. I regret mixing Bartletts and my other Anthias.

I too eventually regretted having bartletts with my other anthias.

I must be the exception....I have a pair of Bartletts and a trio of Lyretails without any problems...alittle flaring fins and chasing, but no fins nipped etc..

Sometimes, a lot of one type can look good too.
