I need a Anthias ID

[Fish Finder]

Just picked up these two along with a few other fish. They are currently in QT with the other noobs. All i was told is these are a deep water Anthias that come from Marshal Island. Other fish in there are the fire fish and a deep water cleaner shrimp.

Beautiful Helfrichi Firefish. I love those fish. The anthias looks like a female Squarespot Anthias to me. Good luck with your fish!

I'd also say it's a female P.pleurotaneia. Weird albino CBS!

Len i've seen those coming in as Hawaiian Cave shrimp, a google search came up for Gnathophyllum precipuum, but I could not find any images to check that scientific name.

It's Stenopus pyrsonotus - http://www.qualitymarineusa.com/article ... 4B0D7172DA

The anthias look like the P. pleurotaenia coming from Vanuatu.

Beat me to it.

Gnathophyllum is the genus of bumblebee shrimp.

The anthias in the back appears to be odontanthias borbonius. It is a deep water species, though I thought the point of origin was Japan.

Too hard to get a clear view of the Anthias behind the Squarespot Anthias, but I think it's also just another female Squarespot Anthias. I think it's just stressed and so it's playing with its colors. I'm just basing that idea on the pink lines near the eyes that the female Squarespots have. That fish also has them. Bourbonius Anthias' green blotches are more round also. These appear to be square.
Just my thoughts. I could be wrong.
