Anthias and Fairy Wrasses

[bassetbros]

Can any of these species get along in a reef tank?

I understand that 2 male fairy wrasses or 2 male anthias in a 75 gallon would probably mean one dead fish and one almost dead fish. I didn't know if one of each would view the other as a male challenging the other's territory.

The Queen/Bartlett's Anthias and some of the very vibrant fairy wrasses would definately make a very attractive set up.

Thanks and God Bless,

Only one male per tank with several females is fine. In a 75 gal though your space is limited so I would stick to one species and about 4 total.

Both of these species are reef/invert safe.
