Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with Luzonichthys Whitleyi?

Best regards

Reading a little about it. Appears to be a user friendly fish. Typically small, about 5.5 cm... I didn't see any references to aggression. My guess a small fish like that would be more suited to schooling rather than aggressiveness.

I have no personal experience with it so take what I said with a grain of salt.. for all I know it could be a beautiful little terror in a tank.. lol

Also, when using Latin names, the second part is never capitalized. Just a detail that gets me.. lol

That’s what I read as well. I prefer smaller fish, hence the interest.

I didn’t know that, good to know.

Just remember that anything shaped like a torpedo usually behaves like one...

It must be peaceful but it's probably a fairly nervous fish, based on the little I know about that type of anthias I don't think they are that easy to get.

I kept them about 20 years ago, they were really touchy when they first came in and I lost the majority of them, those that made it past the first couple of days seemed alot like Dispars and the like

Thanks for the response. Was it anything specific you lost them to?

Not really just seemed fragile in general
