notes
   Very reef safe. Will not bother most reef inhabitants. Spends a lot of its time swimming above any d?cor in the aquarium.   
overview
  
The Bartlett's Anthias (Pseudanthias bartlettorum) belongs to the family named Serranidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 4.0 inches in length, the Bartlett's Anthias is generally passive in nature and moderately hardy in stamina. Based on the particular specimen you acquire and its environment, the time when it is most active can fluctuate day or night, and will hang out across the entire tank. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Pseudanthias bartlettorum should not be housed in a tank less than 55 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include extra swimming area, plenty of hiding places, and a strong water current.
