Identify the fish
Hi all,
Could you please help me identify these fish that I saw at a saltwater fish store? I believe they are types of gobies, but I'm not entirely sure and I forgot to ask. I'm talking about the purple ones on the left and the orange ones of the right. Sincerely, BinaryRun |

+1, Anthias. Lyretails on the far right by the bioball container. The 2 closest to the sea fan look like bartletts or carberryi from purple/yellow the coloration, but I'm not certain.

Agree on anthias. Pretty, reef-safe, haremic fishes that need frequent feedings. Only related to gobies at the Order level.

Looks like lyretail and Bartlett's (or similar) anthias, a mandarin, a maroon clown, a sailfin tang, a majestic angelfish ... and maybe a regal blue tang?
Which fish are you looking at? ~B. (~_^)
