I have three female and one male Maldive's Lyretail Anthias, and I have two female Bartlett they all hang out together. Just don't have two males with less than 8 females. I bought all females the dom female will turn male. Sometimes they seperate but for the most part they all hang out and get chased around by the super male! One of my favorite fish. ]]> Thu, 11 Oct 2012 00:21:50 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488872&title=anthias-compatability#488872 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488869&title=anthias-compatability#488869 Author: P.Kapp

My two species play nice. They will divide up into two groups sometimes, and sometimes all six swim together]]> Wed, 10 Oct 2012 23:56:09 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488869&title=anthias-compatability#488869 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488855&title=anthias-compatability#488855 Author: Nails12

You certainly do not need nine Anthias! A trio works well. We have a trio of Bartlett's. One male and two female. I have tried three times with Maldive's Lyretail Anthias. Of 10 fish, nine have been DOA. We have had a single Lyretail for almost five months. He hangs with the Bartletts.]]> Wed, 10 Oct 2012 21:57:31 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488840&title=anthias-compatability#488840 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488757&title=anthias-compatability#488757 Author: Nails12

Wont they change like clowns?? ]]> Wed, 10 Oct 2012 14:06:06 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488757&title=anthias-compatability#488757 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488756&title=anthias-compatability#488756 Author: Nails12

For about the last year or so, I have fallen in love with anthias. I have 3 bartlet's and 3 carberryi's in my 210 right now. I started with 4 of the carberryi and they picked off the smallest female after about 3 weeks. I have read that they usually pick off the weakest fish until there are 3 left, but Im not sure if it is the same with lyretails. They also may be fine in your 180. Hopefully someone with some first hand experience can chime in. Good luck! Post pics when you get them too]]> Wed, 10 Oct 2012 10:28:47 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488725&title=anthias-compatability#488725 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488656&title=anthias-compatability#488656 Author: Nails12

Thinking of getting a few lyretail anthias. I was originally going to get 3 females, and 1 male. But doing research and it said to at least get 8 females, and 1 male... Just wondering thoughts on this..

Also on a side note, I currently have a lawnmower blenny. And am looking to get 1 or 2 midas blenny's and wondering if all three would be okay in a 180? I know there might be some aggression.. ]]> Tue, 09 Oct 2012 22:24:54 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=59572&PID=488656&title=anthias-compatability#488656
