    Default Your Favorite Fish?

    I'm about to trade about half my fish to the LFS to downsize to some smaller fish. I thought it would be interesting to get everyone to post their favorite fish for color and personality and then pick from those to refill my tank.
    My current favorite is my blue hippo tang. His color is amazing and he seems to always come to the glass to greet me. Thanks for your input.

    Here are couple of my favorites:

    Yellow Tang - Very active and bright fish. Can be the boss of the tank and need like a good size tank.

    False Percula Clowns - Active and easy

    Royal Gramma - Awesome colors and easy

    Lawnmower Blenny - Awesome Personality and a great cleaner

    Carpenter's Flasher Wrasse - Awesome Colors and active but is a jumper.

    I tend to like cheaper fish. They seem to live longer.

    I have a Potter's Angel that I love both color and personality. He plays a game of peek-a-boo when I peek in the tank.

    Also my Magnificent Foxface has an incredible personality.

    Right up there is also my Lunare Wrasse from the red sea (so different coloration than those normally found). Very flashy in color and very bold.

    I really like all of my fish, but those are my favorites right now. I love clowns, but don't have any at the moment.

    I would say my 2 false percula clowns. (I dont know what makes them false) They are like puppies Always at the front of the tank watching me watch them or them watching tv =p If I put my hand in the tank they are always in the way! I learned to have some mysis shrimp for them to eat so they will leave my hand alone =) Something had knocked my plate coral off the rock and it was upside down in the sand. I reached in and went to grab it all I got was fish! Took that silly fish and move him to a corner near the rock. (yes with my hand) It took 3 tries for me to move that piece of coral. Guess I am not trained very well. Anyway I love them

    The Royal Gramma is in the running for my tank. I'm also liking the firefish Goby. I'll be looking into the lawnmower Blenny. I'm not sure if I can catch my two yellow tailed damsels, but I'm tired of them nipping at the other fish. I'll be getting rid of them if I can.

    I had a pair of purple firefish. They seemed to hide a great deal of the time which is too bad since they are so beautiful. I am not sure is this is common behavior or not.

    I love the color of the Flame Angel fish. I suspect he may be a bully also. Does anyone have any experience with this dwarf angelfish?
