nice set up bro.... upload more pic of ur fish leh....

how long u hav keep ur ventralis anthias? heard it is not easy..

hi bro.. cant really recall for how long.. it was since the last shipment from Marine Life.. i think probably got 4-5 months

and as long as it get acclimatise to your tank.. i guess the rest is easy.. it basically eat every thing from mysis, prepare food and even dry food..

Bro, Seems like you are one of the few that managed to get a healthy pair of Ventralis...

hi bro.. i think there should have some other bros who also managed to keep them.. :upsidedown:
