2 anthias?

[Duberz]

Is there any species of anthias that can survive with just 2?

Its more so down to the individuals involved. Ive had anthias live in pairs before (randall's and flavvogutatus), however quite often with only one other fish to display and chase in their battle for dominance, that fish can be picked on to death without others to spread out the agression. Choosing members from the more peaceful subfamily mirolabrichthys or pseudanthias may help.

I have a Lyretail and a Squampinnis together and they are happy and thriving.

I have 2 Randall's Anthias males...so far no issues. They where purchased and placed in my system at the same time.

Cool so there's hope. I love anthias but only have a reefer 250(54gal) so I can't get a large group.
