Pseudanthias calloura is a visually striking anthias species prized for its vibrant colours and graceful swimming behaviour. Available as a pair in various sizes, these fish are suitable for experienced hobbyists with established marine aquariums.
Temperament and Compatibility: Pseudanthias calloura are generally peaceful and best kept in groups or pairs. They coexist well with other non-aggressive reef-safe fish but may show mild territorial behaviour towards conspecifics if the tank is undersized.
Diet: These anthias thrive on a varied diet consisting of high-quality frozen mysis, brine shrimp, and specialised marine pellets or flakes. Frequent small feedings throughout the day mimic their natural feeding habits and promote vibrant health.
Tank Requirements: A minimum tank size of 150 litres (approximately 40 gallons) is recommended to provide ample swimming space and reduce territorial disputes. Stable water parameters with excellent filtration and moderate water flow are essential to replicate their natural reef environment.
Reef Compatibility: Pseudanthias calloura are considered reef safe, making them suitable for reef aquariums with corals and invertebrates. However, ensure adequate hiding places and open swimming areas to reduce stress.
Care Level: Moderate. Requires stable water quality, a varied diet, and a well-established tank.
