Help with an Anthias (?) ID

[Anonymous]

So I saw a group of fish today that I couldn't ID. They were located in the lobby tank of the Mirage in Las Vegas.

As far as I can tell they are a Pseudanthias sp. About 6" long, and a deep purple color like a P. tuka or P. pascalus. However, these guys had a vivid vellow anal and rear dorsal fin, which I have not seen in either of these species. There also appeared to be a small black area near the head and eye. The tail was lunate. They also did not have the pointed snout that P. pascalus and tuka do. Any ideas?

Sorry but it was impossible to get a photo.

The Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay is kinda cool. The one thing that bugs me about some of the big nice tanks is you can't get close to them!

Hey, Len had the chance to hang out with me and Rich about 6 weeks ago but 'couldn't make it'. I suppose it was for the best. If anybody in the sump had gotten wind we were all AFK at the same time there could have been chaos. Absolute mayhem I tells ya.
