Do you name your fish?

[Bayliner]

Well I named one last night.... while doing a water change with the hood off I heard a flapping noise coming from a styrofoam box that had about 1" of water in it.. it was a blue/green chromis that jumped out of the tank and landed about 2 feet away and into this 10" X 10" box. I named him Lucky........

I definitely name my fish haha. Most of my freshies don't have names but my marine fish do.

I've always wanted to name my fish but never got around to it. When I use names I like to use names of individuals throughout history or famous in culture. For example, Napoleon, Marmaduke, Antoinett & Louise, Hannibal, Jefferson, etc. Weird I know lol but I get a kick out of seeing the name of grand figures in history being reduced to pets in a fish tank.

Yes I name them. Actually my girlfriend does. She likes to give them silly names and my only rule is they have to make it a month before they get a name.

Haha! I have the same rule!

No I don't because I'm not good at remembering names and I probably would mix there names up:fun5:
