what camera are you using?

as mentioned it's a male Lyretail Anthias..AKA Spotfin Anthias, IMO one of the easiest Anthias to keep because they don't need mutliple feedings and eat almost everything offered, but also one of the most aggressive ones. Although they can be kept by themselves and do well, I recommend getting a couple of females to keep his beautiful coloration which they tend to lose without females present....GL

Thanks for the info

Thats a lyretail? Coloring on mine is way different. I guess I see it now but if getting him a female will brighten him up you gotta get one (or a few) you will be shocked at how beautiful they can be!

I tried to find a picture of mine but couldn't I will keep looking.

Here is a really bad one:

like many other species of fish the coloration can be different depending on where they were collected...here are my males...the first died awhile ago before the second was introduced...
