what do you think about Pictilis Anthias?

[geaux xman]

I see LA has some Pictilis anthias in stock and on sale.

Are they hard to keep? Will they likely swim around or will they hide all the time? I had 4 carberryi anthis in QT about a year ago, and all they did was hid under the rocks.

Would a trio do okay in a 180g FOWLR with a few large angels and tangs? I have my top covered with standard egg crate. I see medium listed as 2.25"-3.25". Would they still be at risk for jumping?

Would one for sure turn male if I get 3 females?

I would get a male, but they dont have it in stock.

I think i saw a picture of a male before in a guys tank and he looks awesome.

Great looking fish in person and temperamentally like a Squareback. I would say yes to the auto sex change with three females. My guy here in HK had a dozen of them and the biggest male was 5" thereabouts.
