Scribbled Anthias Bimaculatus Anthias Male

Overview:
The Scribbled Anthias, scientifically known as Bimaculatus Anthias, is a vibrant and eye-catching addition to any marine aquarium. Renowned for its stunning coloration, which includes a base pink hue adorned with intricate, scribble-like patterns, this fish brings both beauty and liveliness to its environment. They grow to a moderate size, making them perfect for a variety of tank setups.

Origin:
Native to the coral reefs of the Western Pacific Ocean, Scribbled Anthias are accustomed to the clear, warm waters found around islands and atolls. They typically inhabit areas with plenty of hiding spots and swim in mid-water columns.

Feeding:
Scribbled Anthias are planktivores, thriving on a diet rich in mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and other marine-based foods. They require multiple small feedings throughout the day due to their high metabolism. A varied diet ensures optimal color and health.

Tank Mates:
Ideal for a reef aquarium, they get along well with a wide variety of tank mates. Compatible with other peaceful fish and invertebrates, they should be kept in a group with one male to several females for best social structure. Avoid housing with large, aggressive species.

Aggression:
Scribbled Anthias are generally peaceful, making them excellent community fish. However, males can display territorial behavior towards other males of the same species. Adequate space and hiding places can mitigate aggression.

Experience Level:
Suited for intermediate to advanced aquarists, Scribbled Anthias require some knowledge of marine aquarium keeping due to their specific dietary and environmental needs.

Water Parameters:

  • Temperature: 72°F to 78°F (22°C to 26°C)
  • Salinity: 1.020-1.025 SG
  • pH: 8.1-8.4
  • Ammonia/Nitrite: 0
  • Nitrate: <20 ppm

Ensuring stable water conditions and maintaining high water quality are crucial for the health of these exquisite fish.
