Fire clown... who else could beat the living heck out of a pair of mated maroons and chase them across a 10' tank..

I love my black percs. Their behavior is just fascinating. They host everything except for my anemone. Their favorite is a branch covered in GSP that the slither around in like a couple of eels. Other times they hover above my candy cane until it extends it's tentacles to give them a sting. The curiosity is a riot as well. They regularly come over to stare at the tangs when they pick at the nori. The tangs don't care for this, but the clowns keep sneaking back up to get a front seat for the show.
 
Cinnamon clownfish, Amphiprion melanopus.

I enjoy the subtle colors as compared to percula. They have a great demeanor. And you don't get the "hey look, it's nemo!" crap.
 
:lolspin: That has to be my #1 pet peeve :lolspin:

I know it's been covered thoroughly in these forums over the last decade or whatever, but it still upsets me. "Nemo" is such a great aquatic name that would be really neat to apply to the aquarium hobby in many different ways. But instead, it's ruined forever. For instance, you can't call a cavern in your liverock structure "Nemo's Cave" because then everyone will expect an animated clownfish to pop out of it.
