Mine would be my longhorn cowfish. Good personality, color and it looks really funny. mine is super hardy. Some websites says there not, but you wouldn't believe what my cow went though.

i would say scooter dragonet, but you have a mandarin. True Percs would be awesome, I'd go kidna risky and get a dwarf fuzzy lion though.

yeah thats what i thought but i'm still looking to add a fish, a legal resident that will tax my tank's resources based on its size and consumtion. a fish that will cohabitate and tolorate and not try to dominate or dessimate fishes of other regions. i'm looking for a fish with the freedom to chose its own lifestyle without impossing on the lifestyles of its neibors. basically a live and let live fish.
