The Bimaculatus Anthias is a beautiful yet uncommon species found within the aquarium trade. The males have one or two spots on their dorsal fin, with a pink head that fades to a vibrant red. Irregular pink bars run horizontally along the body, making this fish one of the most gorgeous of all Anthias. The females of the species are pink with a yellow dorsal, anal and caudal fin.
The Bimaculatus Anthias does best when kept with its own species in a tank of at least 400 litres. The Anthias prefer to dwell in the middle of a tank but appreciates the availability of several hiding places.
Anthias species all share the trait of being hermaphroditic. If a dominant male perishes, the largest female of the group will often morph to take its place.
Once acclimated to a new aquarium, Anthias do best when fed a varied diet of frozen mysis shrimp and brine shrimp, and over time eat high quality flake and pellet foods offered in small quantities throughout the day. An attached refugium cultivating copepods and amphipods provides a steady supply of nutritious live food sure to keep this active planktivore content.
