Ignitus vs. Dispar Anthias

[reef_doug]

What are the general differences between the two?

I noticed the LiveAquaria web site currently show the Ignitus but not Dispars. Thanks!

reef doug,

Thank you for contacting us with your question. The specimens are two different species of anthias, Pseudanthias ignites and Pseudanthias dispar. The main difference would be the coloration of the fish with the Ignitus being redder and the Dispar more orange. Below are the links to both the items on our website.
