HI what is your FAVORITE Fish & why?!?!

By the way , yes you are, but in this hobby you need to be nosy, to get all kinds of advice and info. I myself would have to say its our Snowflake eel he is AWSUME, my wife loved the pork puffer we had, but he was cooked in the hospital tank :( :( some one turned up the heater before we new it it was 100 degrees, she was so sad and upset, going to get her a new one when the new tank is ready and cycled. And why the eel is my fav is because he is like a kid or aging parent If I didnt feed him by hand he would never get anything to eat and, he is always polite and ready to eat at 8:00 everynite. He is a good boy and getting huge....cya

My favorite was my 2 percs, but I got a snowflake last sat and he is the greatest.
He is very docile and like fixit said, it is a blast to feed him.

Favorite fish is my Sebea clown. I have had him about 4 years now and he has been through a couple of tank moves and a case of ick and is still going strong, tough fish.
Although I do not have one I think the powder blue is the prettiest fish on the market.

Fixit, sorry to hear about the puffer, they are totally cool little guys. I also agree on the snowflake, but mine started to eat evreything in the tank so I had to return him. I will get another when I set up an agressive!!!
But the most fun guy to watch is my sailfin blenny, I think most people on this board call it a lawnmower, but I first heard of them as sailfin and it is a hard habit to break. :D :D :D

I think the best fish is the Majestic Angel, I don't have one yet, but maybe some day. I also love the Porcupine puffers, I can't have one in my tank, so I can just admire them at the lfs.

My favorite fish would be the clown tang. Yes, it is hard to keep and it is agressive, but it is a pretty fish.

My favorite fish are my Black Volitan Lion, my Harlequin Tusk, and just because he is so cool and colorful, I would say my Black-Cap Basslet. I also like my 6-line wrasse and Picasso Trigger.
 
Hay Dseiler,The pork was a sad thing, still have the valentinie puffer and hes pretty cool too but, wont eat out of your hand like the pork did and how snowflake does. How big was the snowy and how long did you have it? Our snowy was our second ocupant, maybee we just got one of the more docile ones, actually he is pretty lazy, only comes out for feedings, but always has his head pocking out from somewere ,so you can always see part of him, when we put him in the big tank going to see how big he really is . I do know he is double the size around from when we got him and his head is taking on a differant shape more mature looking, ..cya ;)

My emperor angel,or,believe it or not my yellow head gobie. They both are very active.The emperor is quite beutiful(cant wait till he matures) and the gobie is always sifting the sand.Quite a clown.It's hard to pick 'cause I have alot of fish,but these two are my fav's.

Fixit-
He was still pretty small, I would guess about 15-18". I only had him for about 4 months and man he grew quick, ate well and was just cool. The only reason I traded him was that he was in a reef tank and was eating my cleaning crew, especially shrimp. I am surprised he wasn't asking for butter. I will def. get another when I get an agressive set up. My kids (4 and 5) are always asking where the water snake is. Really a bummer.

I would have to say my Rock Beauty, Very active and because everyone says they are hard to keep alive for a long time. Mine has been doing great for about 5 months. He is also the king of the tank.

I'd have to say my favorite is a clown trigger. They are so cool looking and such a dominant fish.
