If your set on anthias and that multiple feeding thing turns out to be true you could always invest a few dollars in an automatic fish feeder.

Chromis are amusing, kind of dumb though. I find that they school best when they are approximately the same size. I have some monster chromis, medium sized ones, and 1 really tiny one. The monster chromis make their own shoal and the rest make a second.

The bartletts are awesome, numbers can matter.

I bought five, lost one immediately, and of the remaining four, one became the shadow male and subsequently had it's eyes taken out by the dominant male.

It lived out it's life in the rockwork, never wanting to give up the quest. I lost all the anthias in a cucumber incident, they were the only ones to go.

I fed them as much as my other fish got. That was twice a day as a rule.

Default anthias

I do like the sounds of the anthia, but I do only feed my fish twice a day. Unless they wouldn't mind eating at 6 a.m. 4 p.m. and then 9 p.m. when only the moon lights are on.

I hope mine all keep their eyes intact!
