The Bartlett’s Anthias is recognized for its ability to coexist in both peaceful and reef aquariums. Not only does it provide an injection of vibrant color, but it is also an excellent addition to the marine tank given its hardiness and adaptability. The species is best kept with its own kind in a tank of at least 70 gallons, and when housed in an appropriate environment, is sure to thrive. Furthermore, this species is known to occupy the middle of the aquarium water column, though it may occasionally venture to the surface or the substrate.
