How many anthers in a 40

[d-man]

So I'm tearing down my 128 and setting up a 40 in wall, that will be in the master bedroom and at some point in the future look through into the shower as well.
Out of my current livestock all I will keep will be a dispar anthia, lyretail anthia and my lineatus wrasse. My question is if I keep either bartletts or randalls how manta more could I have?

The set up is as follows,
40 gal
20 gal sump
Rio1700 return pump
Gfo/gac canisters
NaC7 skimmer
2 tunzes 6055s
30 or so lbs of rock in tank
30lbs or so in sump.

Thanks for the advice

IMO a 40 is too small to keep more than one anthia. Keeping more than one needs way more space to keep fighting to a minimal.

Really? Even disbars or ignitus. They stay small and don't move around as much.

Yeah, that is just my opinion though. SDguy or some other anthias experts may be able to chime in, but I personally would only keep one anthia in a tank smaller than 125 gallons(75 depending on the species). I just don't like the look of one because they are a fairly social fish.
