Hungry Hungry Homer, my juv Vlamingii Tang. He eats like a pig but is really inquisitive and follows me around the tank (expecting food I imagine 
) He's also pretty photogenic and has messed up more than one shot!

Eight line wrasse, model reef citizen and really neat, does mock displays against my starkii damsel, another cool fish. Its the orange/red one in this pic:

I agree about the LMB. I had a Diamond Gobie once that was cool. I liked how he gulped up the sand and ran ir through his gills.

My prawn/prawn goby are awesome. They used to be in the front area of the tank where I could see them all the time, but have now moved to the back so I rarely see them. Still a neat thing to watch.

I really like my Mandarin, hes so funny to watch. The other fish bother him, they like to sit rit on top of him and he pays them no attention, just goes about his business. Its like he never even notices them! My new unknown goby from the keys is pretty cool also. His name is G-O-B-I-E, as in the letters. He halls ass around the tank and then sudenly stops and looks around for food and then puts the petal to the metal and starts zooming again.
Cowfish are neat. I dont have one, but I did manage to catch two in the keys. They are so akward looking, but very interesting no less.

yes it's reef safe.
Some people have a hard time feeding them but I never had a problem. The only problem I had is he ate my gobie.
If you get one don't feed it by hand. I do this and its pretty cool but it's created a problem for me. Every time I stick my hand in the tank it thinks it's feeding time and he can be a pest.

I'm going to have to go with the wonder twins(cleaner&boxfish). The shrimp will actually ride on my cubicus man thats funny. My Cubicus also has attitude, he get ticked off if you don't pay him enough attention so he will hid behind the rocks until you offer him some sea weed by hand. It's like owning a puffer, he'll even beg for food

Well I guess I am lucky. I have a LMB and a cow fish. I would have to say Stanley the cowfish is the coolest. I kind of feel sorry for him though, when he is not puffing up the sand he is looking out of the aquarium. I think he wants out. I get the feeling he would love to follow me around the house like a dog. When you walk by the aquarium he swims along with you. Any time you go up to the aquarium, there is Stanley.
I have a yellow wrasse and a red cross wrasse. One day they were trying to eat a hermit crab. The red cross was icking at the crab and the only fish he would chase away was the yellow wrasse. They took turns harassing the crab and then Stanley got involved. When it was Stanley's turn both wrasses would swim away and hide behind the rocks.
