Mixing Anthias

[mfinn]

I have a friend that has a male and a female Dispar anthias. She wants to add a group of female Lyretails.
Is there cause for concern one of the Lyretails turning male and having issues with the male Dispar?

Or will the presence of a male Dispar stop any of the Lyretails from turning?

I have lyretail, dispar, bartletts in my tank right now - males and females. I have had them for years. They all look great, but I don't have a make bartlett, just two females.

You shouldn't have any issues mixing lyretails and dispars. Is this for the 240? If so, maybe throw in some ignites, or even carberryi

Actually, it's a friends 140.
She was most concerned about the current male Dispar and future Lyretails that might turn male.
I told her that since she has a male now, any new additions must female.

My various pseudoanthias do a good job of bickering amongst themselves, but really very little outside the species. Bartletts leave the bimacs alone which leave the resplendents alone, etc. Got lots of males too.
