The Creole Anthias (Paranthias colonus), also known as the Creolefish, is a large Anthias that can be found in schools or harems in the deepwater reefs of the eastern Pacific Ocean. They search for brine shrimp and krill to feed on and can exceed 14 inches in length. They are a rare sight in the marine life trade and need a large aquarium to feel at home. While a peaceful fish, it is not recommended to keep two males in the same aquarium, as they may be aggressive towards each other.
