FarmerTy Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Since we're getting so much love with the favorite coral pics, let's see what everyone's favorite fish are! It can be something you already have or had, or something you've been coveting for a long time now. Great idea KimP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOceanTraveler Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Don't have a pic so hope this is ok. It is my fav right now because after 4 months they finally found each other spent a night together then were back on separate sides of the tank. Then come Froday night the shrimp is back at his place. She's been there all weekend so I guess they have worked out their differences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 I think video is even better! No video here but here is my blonde naso tang... I'm thinking he's a male so I'm looking forward to a future with streamers on him. Sent via Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuxx Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Think my Black Tang (Zebrasoma rostratum) is my favorite so far. Defiantly runs the tank. Also the Chevron tang (Ctenochaetus hawaiiensis) is great, always eating and never shies away from people. Excited about these in the near future: Zebra Tang (Acanthurus Polyzona) Achilles Tang (Acanthurus achilles) - Maybe one normal and one hybrid Crosshatch Triggerfish (Xanthichthys mento) - Pair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prettyfishy76 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I sincerely love both of my scribbled rabbitfish. They're beautiful, get along superbly (these 2 fish rarely leave one another's side) and they take care of any algae that pops up in the tank. I have not had a single sign of algae in almost 2 years (since I've had them). YAY RABBITS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sethsolomon Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Some awesome fish so far! But no wrasse lovers yet? Let me post mine: Cirrhilabrus rhomboidalis Followed by my scott's fairy wrasse and lastly I want some blue stripe tamarin wrasses but still eluding my reach.

FarmerTy Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 My apologies... I can't help staring at your wrasse! :-p. I'm still waiting to add about 4-5 wrasses to the tank but have to finish that canopy first or they'll all go carpet surfing in no time.

FarmerTy Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 Hmmm, I might have to pick me up a scribbled rabbitfish now. Had a foxface and he was a perfect citizen. Sent via Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prettyfishy76 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I've never seen one of these before, that's a beautiful fish! KimP, thank you! Sounds like you have a bonded pair of rabbits I hope they start spawning for you. I'm hoping so. I don't know if there is a way to tell if they are male / female... However, some of the research I've done on them stated that they have also been found in male / male & female / female pairs in the wild. So, who knows. If they do actually spawn, I'll have my answer. Otherwise, I think I'll always wonder. Hmmm, I might have to pick me up a scribbled rabbitfish now. Had a foxface and he was a perfect citizen. Sent via Tapatalk They've been great fish. I feed them a varied diet (pellets, mysis, blackworms, flake, and 1/2 sheet of nori per day - they LOVE their nori). Even with all of that food, they would still graze when I had algae on the rocks. I have a few corals in the tank and they've never bothered any of them - zoas, frogspawn (very green) and various montipora. They don't even bother any of the other fish. They're the biggest, of course, so I'm sure no one tries to mess with them anyways. /I/ even give them respect when I've got my hand in the tank because I don't really want to get stung by them, as they are poisonous.

+KimP Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I like wrasses too and I'd have trouble picking a favorite. This is what I have: female flasher male flasher always trying to woo the yellow yellow Couldn't get my own pic of the red-lined wrasse, mine is a juvenile But I'd have to say my favorite fish of all time, so far, is a tassled filefish. The best personality and really neat looking. I lost mine shortly after moving and am still looking for another. I really miss that fish. I feel kinda bad leaving out the rest of my fish, lol. I really like them all!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 I love all my children the same!!! That huge tassled filefish you had was pretty awesome! Hopefully the Dome gets you one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reburn Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 That's a neat looking fish Kim. I got my box from divers den yesterday as well. I'm a toss up between my new clowns they are Sanjay's Ultra Snowflake Black Photon Clownfish or my Tanaka Pygmy wrasse. They are not my pictures but all 3 fish were divers den wysiwyg. But I do love my royal gramma and my Dracula goby too..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Woohoo! I'm stoked for you to finally be reunited with one of your favorite fish. He's going to look awesome in the new tank. Sent via Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiddyORION Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Neon Dottyback. He's a real punk and a bully. Snatches food out of a red tail triggerfish mouth, and is 1/5 the triggers size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
