Cute "Pet" Fish

Clownfish



Can a Flame Hawk live with two clownfishes in a 40g?

Sure, a Flame Hawk should be fine with Clownfish.

Should be fine as long as the clownfish are not tiny babies.

I have to agree with triggers and puffers. If you just want 1, then go with a dogface puffer (Arothron spp.). They are awesome.

My most personable fish is my magnificent foxface. I hand feed him and can "pet" him. Also he eats pretty much anything and is extremely hardy! Just watch out for their venomous dorsal spines!

Interesting, cuz my Foxface is one of the most shy in my 300g reef.

Same for mine.

What about a Lawnmower or Starry Blenny? It's kind of comical how they sit on a rock and it looks like they're staring at you and the little stocks about their eyes make them look like they have eyebrows.

I have had a blue ribbon eel who was very personable,and would be waiting to be fed Rosie's( feeder fish) every day @ 3 AM.What could be more of a cute pet than that.Sort of had me hypnotized into waking up early everymorning to feed him.He escaped and died on the floor,unfortunately.I had gone to elaborate measures to have a tight lid on the aquarium ,but he found a 2 mm opening.It was a very sad day,as I found I had been getting attached to it for several months.
My current species,is a Bluespot ribbontail ray is similarly a nocturnal eater.You can call him a real pet to,as he comes to you to be fed and begs.I must still be hypnotized into waking up @ 3AM. to feed that one too.

My Starry blenny lets me pick him up on my finger when it's out lounging on LR. Be careful,however,they are jumpers.I had one die after jumping from my refugium to a different compartment of my sump,that contained my MAG24.

I've heard of triggerfish biting fingers, destroying things by chewing and making noise - what could be more poodle like.
