Beautiful Anthias! They are fast!.... you gotta use the action setting on your camera, I know!
What size grain sand do you have?
Thanks Kim! Yeah those shots that I posted were on action, but they were still too fast for my camera, I guess I have to play around with the manual settings a little more. My sand is "Fiji Pink" at 0.5-1mm if I remember correctly.

Thanks cheeks, and you are correct,all females. I read one of the links that someone left or that I dug up somewhere that there isn't any real advantage to keeping one male to a harem, because with all females eventually the dominant female will become male. Also I heard there are less aggression problems with the females. I fed my tank cyclopeeze yesterday and mysis today, as soon as the cyclopeeze hit the water they were eagerly eating it up, which I thought was odd for newly acclimated fish. I noticed yesterday that there were two of the females in particular displaying shaking motions towards each other, so they must be the top females in their new heirarchy. But today everything has cooled down and they all swim about together again.
