I think you guys have some issues with your descriptions at marinedepotlive.com. (unless I am misreading things)
For example: see below the text copied off the site for the Disbar Anthias. In the general description it first states this "General Notes: Deepwater fish, doesn't like light." then at the bottom it says: "Being a shallow water species, the Dispar is one of the best candidates for being placed in a brightly lit reef aquarium. "
Very confusing!
Disbar Anthias - Mirolabrichthys dispar
Maximum Size: the Mirolabrichthys dispar grows up to 4 inches.
General Size Specifications: The small size will come to you generally 1 to 2 inches; the medium generally 3 to 4 inches; the large generally 5 to 6 inches not including the caudal fin.
Minimum Tank Size: The Disbar Anthias prefers a tank of at least 80 gallons with plenty of places to hide & swim.
Diet: The Mirolabrichthys dispar is a carnivore and likes to eat plankton, flake food, etc. .
Level of Care: The Disbar Anthias is a medium maintenance fish.
Behavior: The Disbar Anthias may act peaceful (but will be harassed)ly toward other fish.
Hardiness: This is a delicate fish
Water Conditions: Keep water quality high (SG 1.020 - 1.025, pH 8.1 - 8.4, Temp. 72 - 78Ã"šÃ‚° F).
Range: Maldives, Western Pacific east to Samoa and the line Islands.
General Notes: Deepwater fish, doesn't like light. Likes others of the same species. All Anthias except the Sunburst Anthias, should be kept as a trio 1 Male to 2 Females. In this arrangement, they will acclimate much easier, and act more like they would in the wild. Of course in larger tanks they can be kept in larger groups, at which point it could be best to keep at least 2 males in with 6 or more females. A beautiful species, the Dispar Anthias is best if kept in groups consisting of one male, and a couple of females. Reef type tanks with more peaceful fish i.e. Gobies, Blennies, Cardinals, and Dragonets would be the best combination, as the Dispar Anthias is quite prone to being picked on by more aggressive fish. Being a shallow water species, the Dispar is one of the best candidates for being placed in a brightly lit reef aquarium. As with most of the Anthias, frequent feeding is suggested, at least twice a day.
