Pseudanthias squamipinnis: the red anthias with vibrant colors

The Pseudanthias squamipinnis, also known as the red anthias, is an iconic fish of the Indo-Pacific coral reefs. With its bright orange elongated body and small purple stripe between the eye and the pectoral fin, it adds a touch of liveliness and dynamism to any marine aquarium.

This gregarious fish is very active and enjoys large spaces to swim freely. Its peaceful nature makes it an excellent choice for community reef aquariums. It is often seen in colorful schools swirling above the rocky decor.

Keeping in a group in a well-sized aquarium

To provide optimal conditions, the Pseudanthias squamipinnis should be kept in a group consisting of at least one male for four females. A group of 10 individuals is recommended to observe natural and harmonious behavior.

The aquarium should have a minimum volume of 500 liters with numerous hiding places and good water flow. A well-designed rock structure will allow individuals to rest and hide when they feel the need.

Frequent and varied feeding

With a fast metabolism, the Pseudanthias squamipinnis requires several meals a day. Good nutrition is essential to preserve its intense colors and maintain its vitality:

  • Live zooplankton (rotifers, copepods)
  • Frozen artemia and mysis
  • Finely chopped fish eggs and crustacean meat
  • Specific reef fish pellets or micro-flakes

Feeding should be divided into 3 to 4 times a day in small quantities to avoid any food competition within the group.

An ideal anthias for passionate aquarists

The Pseudanthias squamipinnis is completely reef safe and poses no risk to corals or invertebrates. It brings intense life to the reef tank while remaining peaceful towards other species.

Easy to observe, it will delight enthusiasts seeking a colorful and lively touch in their aquarium. With a well-structured group, appropriate feeding, and a well-arranged environment, this anthias will display its full splendor at the heart of the reef.
