    TinFury it is basically an agressive move to establish dominance the way I understand it. He only does it in the presense of food or when he is trying to be a bully. (it will actually spend about 5 min at a time just swim around the tank and make sudden stops infrot of every single fish just to make sure they all know he is around. And that is with out food present) I think the new nickname will be "BOSS"

    I will have to say my Sailfin Blenny. This guy looks so much like a dog, he just watches me from his little rock lounge chairs. I feel bad because i hardly get to see any of my fish anymore! Damm College hah!

    In saltwater I have to say the clownfish. It was my first fish, and is always ready for anything

    In freshwater, I almost have to say all cichlids, lol. Mybe the discus, because the colors are almost like a salt fish, and because the tank keeps me conditioned on the water care for the salt tank lol.

    Um... I have so many.. Either Hippo Tangs (they have really cute freckles) or the Foxface. The foxface was my first fish and besides being awesome at eating algae he used to swim right in front of my eyes when I was looking in the tank (my black clown does that now, even after I feed her) and cause he flicked his dorsal spines at his reflection of the tank. Great little personality.

    Right now I'm liking my Soho Tang I picked him up about 6 months ago and put him in my office tank.

    Emperor Angels are right up there too, but the last one recently passed away. I'm looking for a juv right now.
