What is your favorite fish?


WIth a nod to the favorite blenny thread. WHat is your favorite fish? For me it would probably be a Jawfish. Either the Bluespot or Pearly.

I'm hooked on Clownfish. I have 6 different types of mated pairs (Mulitple tanks) and love them all.

Fuzzy dwarf lion. He just has so much character. He actually spits water at me if I don't feed him fast enough.

Fly do you have a fowler or is the niger in one of your reef tanks? I am looking at getting a trigger. I am leaning toward a male bluejaw because I have heard they are reefsafe. I also like the niger tho, just not sure on how they do in reefs. By reefsafe I mean coral, not worried about snails and crabs.

Hes in my sps only tank. Never bothers anything but I think he tries to give all the snails heart attacks. Neve actually munched one, but he surely plays with them. Hes great. I had a bluethroat for a couple months this summer....didnt survive the crash but he wasnt all that cool of a fish to be honest. Hid all the time. The niger is out front and center all the time and will eat out of my hand.

If you want a trigger I say go for the Niger.

If I had a FO tank.......id probably do something totally cliche and get the clown trigger.

I just got a fish that I had never seen, I just did research and got one ordered. Anyone ever seen a Purple Tilefish? AWESOME cool and most colorful fish I have ever seen! But I still love my 6 Tangs.
