Anyone else have Paraanthias Borbonius?

I got these fish a few days ago and have been wanting one since I first laid eyes on them. I need some serous help with my fish addiction. Any one else have one? Regards, Tim

I just got a borbonius anthias. Any advice?

Mine is doing great. I would recommend feeding them atleast 3 times a especially at dawn and dusk. Mine is eating frozen mysis, prawn and silversides soaked in Selcon and Garlic. He has gotten quite thick and doesn't have that normal emaciated look that most anthias have. Give them a dark cave to retreat into. Mine was very shy but now spends most of his time out in the open and he has some tough tankmates. Also try and bring the temperature down to 76-77 degrees. Good luck with him. Have any pictures of yours? Here's a new one of mine. Regards, Tim

Actual scientific name is Holanthias borbonius
Paranthias sp. are the creolefish, I believe.
