    I'm new here and was just wondering what fish you own that was your favourite... or your top few. Who keeps what?

    Oh gosh...I love all my fish!! But I guess if I had to recommend fish to someone, I would say these:

    Brazilian Fireball Angel, Indian Gold Ring Tang, wrasses (red velvet and male and female Hawaiian flames), royal gramma, midas blenny, and redhead elegant pseudo.

    well none of them are exactly reef safe but a few can be kept with caution, i love triggerfish. its fun to watch them swim with their unique fins and trigger that can open and close! (especially the blue jaw)

    - Flame Hawk is one of my favorite, they're hilarious to watch
    - Banggai Cardinalfish are elegant fish, love their markings
    - Ocellaris Clowns they are a staple in so many tanks

    Heh!

    I have a sweet spot for my female Orange Spot Filefish.... not the male, just the female.

    Now, when we have an earthquake, I run for the frondosa's tank O.O

    I did buy her a better stand after the last few we have... but sorry honey... I have to stand by the investment LOL!

    (the truth is, the stand for the frondosa's tank is the least stable... it's one of the tall JBJ 24g nanocube dealies. Mother nature burbs and that thing rocks.)
