    All my family and friends tell me I'm crazy, but this is my favourite fish in my tank:

    I collected this little guy by accident trying to catch a damsel. He ended up in the net and decided to take him home. He has a great personality and I believe he stares at me during feeding time. By the looks of it, its a goby, don't know what kind though. Its incredible how attached we can become to these little creatures.

    I loved my Diamond Goby. Unfortunately he met his end during the lionfish experiment. Atleast he was so big he nearly killed the lionfish from bloating it.

    You know the more I look at it. I think it might be a Scooter Dragonet.

    I certainly know what you mean. There are certain fish that just touch me in a way that others dont. We have a Starry Blenny that is awesome and one heck of a personality...Our male clown is also a great little fish..8)
