coyote Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Last month I bought 2 lyretail anthias from cnc. Bought them a week apart and since last week the bigger one is turning into a male. I read online that they can do that. Was just wondering if anyone has experienced this transformation happening in their tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertareef Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 13 hours ago, spectra said: I have 4 and if any less the male goes away Interesting. I have wondered what the usual ratio is to get one to convert. I have had a pair for couple of years now and one still is still male so seems like it might be variable. Definitely cool to see them morph - at least from female to male. The other way around is often disappointing though 😃 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
