Borbonius Anthias

The Borbonius Anthias is a rare, deepwater showpiece prized for its rich pink-to-orange coloration and bold patterning. With its thick body, flowing fins, and striking contrast, it stands out as a true collector fish and adds a high-end, unique presence to any reef system.

Unlike many anthias, the Borbonius is more durable and less dependent on constant feeding, making it a better choice for experienced hobbyists looking for a standout species without the typical anthias demands. It does best in a stable, mature aquarium with moderate flow and plenty of rockwork for security.
