Super Red Male Lyretail Anthias at Exotic

[Unarce]

Just a heads up! I lost my juvenile male lyretail last week, and have been on the lookout for a replacement. I picked up one of two Super Red Males at Exotic last night. Gorgeous coloration. The other one's still there

Just snapped this shot of mine:

really nice fish. I saw that there...I stood in front of the tank for a good 20 minutes thinking about it.... I guess I want to get female lyretails first..

I think John has a bunch of females at YourReef

Nice Karl! Does your female chase the male around occasionally? My two don't swim together either...she's a bully!

I only have 3 of the original 5 females left (the two smallest died) from a few months ago. The females are slightly smaller than then juvenile male I had, and are at least 3/4" smaller than the new red male. In both cases, the male did all the chasing.

Hehe! That explains why my female chases the male. My female is about 1/2 inch larger. She currently wears the pants!

I guess I got to make a trip to YR soon...anyone know if he picked up a yellow coris wrasse too?
