Hello, wanted share this with all of you. I recently purchased 5 Lyretail Anthias from an individual on E-Bay. It was a great deal, I couldn't pass it up. Got them all shipped at a cost of around $23 each. There was a lot of quarreling among them at first. The largest one, lost out and was killed. Now that they have calmed down. This color change pretty much happened over-night !!! The fish was exactly as the other subordinate females yesterday,,, all orange. It is a striking change, hope it stays this way. The main body is actually turning more pink as the day goes on. I tried to catch it as best I could with my older Fujifilm digital, not the best shots, but will suffice so that you may see the colors anyway. The last pic is with flash. Enjoy !!!
