Kathy- Thanks, Ive made some changes to my system in preparation for the anthias.. I changed the temp of my tank from 78 to 77.8, and then down to 77, because they are a deep water species that are used to lower temps.. I lot of people don't really know that.. They wonder why even with decent water quality the fish starts to fade in color... After reading some articles on these fish I decided to do that for them... My other deep water fish will also appreciate this change as well as my deep water corals... The temp they are used to is probably around the low 70's, but I'm not bringing my tank down that low... I hope a stable 77 will be good enough along with a good diet..

90reefernyc-Thanks, I like a fish that can get along with out schooling...

Beautiful fish you got there and awesome shots. I am fairly new to the whole coral reef fish and I was wondering if you could name the fishes in your shots, if you don't mind. :)
