Hard to pick a "favorite." So many species to choose from.
H. erectus seahorses would probably be at the top of my list.
I can probably pick a favorite from each family....
Tangs: Chevron Tang
Angelfish: Racoon for non-reef safe, bannerfish for reef-safe.
Clowns: Eh......
Wrasses: McCosker's Flasher wrasse
Anthias: Bartlett's Anthias
Triggerfish: Humu
Puffers: Valentini Puffer
Damselfish: Blue Reef Chromis
You get the idea. It's so hard to pick "one" fish.

Do you have some of these? I was at one point, but did some research, and found they are not so easy to care for.

My favorite is the Lemonpeel angelfish, I love the color and they go in and out of the rocks all day...not shy.
My second all time favorite fish is the Erectus Seahorse, personality +...color changes with their mood. I have 3 males and 1 female, it's comedy central everytime I look in their tank.

My favorite fish is the Leafy Sea Dragon.
I have only seen them in pictures...I agree, they are pretty cool. Do you know if they hitch on things like seahorses do? I went looking to see if I could buy one once...$3000.00

LILCLOWNS it is not something that can be housed in a home aquarium (well im sure you could try but they have horrible life expectancies in captivity)
