Mixing Ignitus and Carberryi Anthias?

[snorvich]

I have a group of Carberryi (and a couple accidental Evansi). Would Ignitus mix well with them? (240 gallon reef tank)

I don't see an issue. They have equal size and temperament.

It should be fine since they're both peaceful species, as long as you aren't mixing a bunch of Bartlett's then it will be fine.

Thanks Peter and reefnub.

I agree. My ignitus is very passive, I can't imagine it being a problem with any other passive species.

 

[snorvich]

I vaguely recall that Ignitus are susceptible to a special kind of fluke? True?

Actually Steve, I think it is all anthias that are suseptible to a special kind of fluke. I looked around and found this link here on RC. Post #13 describes this. Hope that helps, definantly QT them and deworm!
