Evansi Anthias

The Evansi Anthias is a small and colorful saltwater fish that can reach a maximum length of 4 inches. It has a slender body with shades of pink, orange, and yellow, and a distinctive black spot behind its pectoral fin. This species is peaceful and can be kept in small to medium-sized aquariums, preferably with plenty of hiding places and a water temperature range of 72-78°F and a pH range of 8.1-8.4.

The Evansi Anthias is a carnivorous species that primarily feeds on small crustaceans and other small meaty foods. In captivity, they can be fed a diet consisting of frozen or live brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, and other small meaty foods. It's important to provide a varied diet to ensure that they receive all the necessary nutrients.

Male Evansi Anthias have more vivid colors and longer fins than females. Additionally, males may exhibit more aggressive behavior towards other males.

There is limited information available on the breeding and spawning of Evansi Anthias in captivity.

Evansi Anthias are generally hardy and not prone to specific diseases. However, they can be susceptible to common aquarium diseases such as ich or fin rot. It's important to maintain good water quality and provide a balanced diet to prevent diseases.

The Evansi Anthias is native to the western Pacific Ocean, specifically in areas such as Indonesia, the Philippines, and Papua New Guinea.

The Evansi Anthias is generally considered safe for aquariums. However, they are known to be aggressive towards other similar-looking species, so it's important to keep them with peaceful tank mates.

When introducing Evansi Anthias to a new aquarium, it's important to acclimate them slowly to prevent shock. This can be done by floating the bag containing the fish in the aquarium for about 15-20 minutes, gradually adding small amounts of aquarium water to the bag. This process allows the fish to adjust to the new water parameters.
