Anthias are known to eat small crustacians like rodifers and cyclopeeze. I had a sunburst who refused all foods i gave it, as they are known to do. I have a lyretail who eats anything i put in the tank except algae sheets. I have a queen anthias known to refuse to eat like the sunburst, and i had a heck of a time getting him to eat, but he finally took some cyclopeeze and rodifers, he will also eat live brine, but i don't like feeding him that more then afew times a week.

You can buy them frozen at most lfs. They are small crustacians. I basically feed my fish home made foods, but they also like my corals food (rodifers and cyclopeeze & also DT's.)

Yeah, my lyrtail eats everything i put in the tank, but my sunburst wouldn't touch it, and either will my queen, but still working on getting him to
