[kawicivic]

naming fish is bad luck... then they always die

 

[jmick]

Why name something that can't respond when called? I guess it's cute when the kids do it but otherwise no...

 

[Ladipyg]

kawicivic...same could be said for people...no one gets out alive...;0)
jmick...There's alot of things worst than fish that get names and don't respond. I guess I'm just a kid inside...but please, don't tell her about the old lady on the outside...she'd never understand!

 

[ekrunch]

As much as I hate to admit it... We also name our fish. I also take videos of the fish when I get the time to do so.

Without further ado...

Piggy (Coral Beauty)
Bullet (Coris Wrasse)
Mr Pink (Lyretail Anthis)
Pooty Tang (Tomini Tang)
Spot (Watchman Goby)
Wolverine (Bicolor Angel) and Pac-Man (Blue Tang)

Can anybody help me think of a name for our two Onyx clowns? They're two of our oldest fish and still remain nameless.
The nameless clowns

Last but not least...
Earl - Royal Gramma, and ruler of the universe.

Just my blue throat trigger: Stoooopid

 

[BrandesFam]

I let my kids cook up the names... most are fairly basic, like Sally the sailfin, Wrassee the wrasse, Flamer the flame Angel (I thought that one was funny), Vlad the vlamingi (don't know where that one came from), but when we got our firefish, all three of my girls at the same exact moment knighted him... Twitchy. I think it suits him well.

 

[NewSchool04]

I just posted pics of my new fish on a different thread but I'm really digging the fish and the name. My little boy came up with it.

Some of our fish have names, some don't. I can't really figure out how it happens, it just does.

Here he is, the newest addition to the tank . . Urlacher!

 

[N3gative Cr33p]

My two false perks are named Boz (for Bozo), and Krusty... the only two clowns in the world that I am a fan of.

My future royal gramma will be named Frances... in honor of my Grandmother.

And my future lawnmower blenny will be named Toro. Get it? :lol:

 

[Ladipyg]

I love the videos...every name fits...for your onyx clowns I would vote for Oreo and Ding Dong...And the RBTA is just HUGE!! The landscaping is great.
Urlacher is perfect for the tang and a Lawnmower blenny named Toro...ROFLMAO

See? I knew there were other people out there that would see the humor in naming a lawnmower blenny "Toro". :lol:
