    Alright im making this thread because a lot of you have questions about a fish and stuff like that.:) Well I think it will be cool to type some opinions about a fish you have/once had, Heres An example

    6-Line wrasse- I would recomend this fish to beginners cause of its hardiness. Its a very fun Fish to watch, as it goes in and out of your aquascaping/rockwork. It has some really good colors. The colors really stand out if you have some nice light above! They are pretty good about keeping some bad pests out of your tank, like flatworms.


    Hope this thread is not a complete FAIL;D.

    Sailfin Tangs (veliferum) Great personality, awesome color and fun to watch. They need LOTS of swimming room, at least a 125 I would say

    Heniochus Butterfly Fish-Awesome fish, very hardy mine tries to school with my yellow tang. If you have a reef tank make sure you get heniochus diphreutes and not acuminatus, diphreutes are reef safe. This fish needs at least a 4 feet tank, mine likes to swim up and down the tank picking at the rocks.

    Chromis - peaceful shoaling fish won't cause you a headache like my damsel pairs do..

    chalk goby - fantastic fish full of personality but needs an established tank with a lot of sand to sift.

    Neon gobies - cute small fish which clean your fish of parasites and quite hardy too...

    Diffrent in manyways. They morph colors from juvinille to adult. Theirs colors are amazing. They need atleast 150+ Tank. My Tang atleast a inch n Half lol. Well yeah mine loves picking at all sorts of algae. He cleaned my hair algae up! But yeah show lots of personality. Their not that hardy so i would recomend this fish to people who has an established tank.

    Anthias - I just got one of these and I am very pleased. He has so much color and personality. I've had him for 3 days and he already greets me at the tank, has somehow (???) made friends with my maroon clown (! who hates everyone - they actually swim with each other), and is an all around pleasant fish.

    Orange spot goby - it's fun to watch him build dens and keep them clean. I laugh when a hermit crab dares to crawl in a den, as he gets frustrated and carries them to the other side of the tank.

    I agree with Acemow on a Sailfin Tang. They do have funny personalities. Our other favorite is a yellow bar maroon clown. Ours comes a "swimming" when we get home to greet us just like a dog. ;D
