The Carberryi Anthias is also known as the Threadfin Goldie or Threadfin Anthias and comes from the reefs of the Indian Ocean. A striking fish, it is purple on the head and abdomen and the back and tail are yellow. It is a very active fish and will help to draw out shier fish that share the tank.
The Carberryi Anthias does best when kept in a species-specific tank of at least 70 gallons for a group. Tank mates should be nonaggressive. It dwells in the middle of the tank and requires the availability of multiple hiding places. It does best in tanks with strong water movement and needs excellent water quality.
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.
The diet of the Carberryi Anthias is consistent with other members of the Anthias group – zooplankton and floating filamentous algae. In the aquarium, it should be fed a varied diet of mysid shrimp, vitamin-enriched brine shrimp, frozen preparations, and other meaty items for zooplankton feeders. Feed the Carberryi Anthias small quantities, at least 4 times a day.
