Hey read up more on anthias and be patience , they will boiund to eat sooner or later unless you got yourself the pesky purple queen anthias.

So far, i have kept dispar anthias, lyretail anthias, fairy anthias, tri- color anthias and even purple queen. All of them begun to feed after sometime but later my purple queen just died for no reason.
