Pseudanthias caudalis Kamohara and Katayama,1959
It is a rare and deepwater species known only from Izu Peninsula, Kashiwajima (Kochi), and Ogasawara; a Japanese endemic fish.
Perhaps it gets its size of 20 cm. No data as an aquarium species.
the Bellus at sealife was from irene also if i'm not wrong.
bellus angels are very common at irene and so are the males. but the females are especially common.
anyway, the coradion at irene is indeed coradion melanopus, and there were at least 3-4 when i was there. not as nice as i thought so did not buy.
and what is this gorgeous anthias! first time i'm seeling!! IT'S NOT EVEN ON FISHBASE
Pseudanthias caudalis.
