Description

The Creole Anthias (Pseudanthias creole) is a vibrant and active fish known for its striking blend of red, yellow, and orange hues. It is a deep-water species native to the Caribbean Sea, where it forms large schools in the open waters. In a home aquarium, the Creole Anthias makes for a dynamic display fish due to its lively swimming behavior and peaceful demeanor. This species thrives in large, well-established reef aquariums with ample swimming space and live rock formations. It is a plankton feeder by nature, requiring a diet that includes fine particulate foods like zooplankton and enriched brine or mysis shrimp. Frequent feeding of small amounts throughout the day will help mimic its natural diet and ensure its health. The Creole Anthias is a peaceful fish, well-suited for community tanks with other non-aggressive species. Its reef compatibility makes it an excellent addition to reef systems, as it will not harm corals or invertebrates. Approximate Purchase Size: 4″ to 6″
