Pellet inclined anthias


Recommended Posts

In my experience,  Randall's anthias takes pellet readily. But what matters most is the size of the pellet,  as well as the odour. 

So far,  my pellet eating anthias are: evansi,  carberryi,  borbonious, 

Tuka and pascalus pecks at pellets. But they are too small for me to be 100% sure.

I also had this problem. Issue is pellets sink but flakes overflow. Flakes generally dirty an aquarium faster.
