The Dispar Anthias is a very colorful fish. Males have a bright red dorsal fin and lack any red stripes on their tail. The female may display a yellowish-orange on the top and pale lavender to white on the underside. Anthias species all share the trait of being hermaphrodites. If a dominant male perishes, the largest female of the group will often morph to take its place. Their diets consist of meaty preparations both fresh and frozen as well as flake foods.
