Pseudanthias Cheirospilos
These fish are in LFS marked as Anthias - unsure of species -marked as pseudanthias cheirospilos. From my reading Cheirospilos are very similar to Squamippinis. If theses are like that, then I think they must all be male. They are stunning, though - can anyone confirm ID? |

Thought so, ta. I'll alert the LFS. It's conceivable they may listen to me and seperate them...

Oh, short term probably OK... too small of a holding tank to setup territories.
