My favorite has to be my Midas Blenny. Fun to watch and a great personality!

That's because THEY RULE!! And they're small!! And most species get along great. Heck my clown goby and my neon goby seem to even hang out together. You should get a few different gobies they don't even add much bioload.

Coral Beauty and Watchman goby. The coral beauty doesn't take crap from anyone and the Watchman goby is so skittish but tries to act tough when possible.

Oh..and my least favorite fish in my tank are my Chromis. They are way to aggresive and personally I think I can fill my bioload with a prettier looking fish but my attitude is if they are doing well in my tank then I guess I will keep them.

Flame Angel

Between my Midas Blenny [great, easy fish ... out a lot, interesting personality] and my Sunburst Anthias [shy, difficult fish ... I'm the only person I know who has had one last over a year].

I wouldn't really recommend a Sunburst, very skittish, don't do well in groups - but for a 3' tank, a better `star' fish than some more swimming types [Tangs,etc].

All IMO.

My Mandarin is my favorite, he is out in front quite often and doesn't hide when you walk up to the tank to look him in the eye.

 

[AllenFord_SC]

My favorite definetly has to be the Regal angel.

 

[Ti]

powder blue tang

 

[puffer21]

purcupine puffer

 

[Amphiprion]

Name says it all--the ocellaris clownfish. Couldn't ask for an all-around better fish.

 

[jwhitlow1031]

never even herd of that ocellaris clown, going to check that one out..lol

 

[One Eyed Bunny]

Either a six-line wrasse or a potter angel.

Yeah, I dislike my chromis as well. They're cheap, hardy, and have decent color to them, but I bought three under the impression they 'might' school...however, none of them get along particularly well and the largest hates the other two and constantly chases them.

Oh well, some aggression is to be expected with the tank full of damsels I have: 3 chromis, Maroon Clown, False Percula clown

My Maroon is my favorite fish probably simply due to the fact that he gets along great with my false perc, allowing him to roam as he pleases in my 90 gallon tank and hasn't even nipped any of his fins. The only aggression EVER directed towards the false perc was when I acclimated him and the maroon sort of chased him for about 30 minutes to let him know who the boss was.

my fiance likes the royal dottyback pretty color and turns from purple to blue under actinics . . . but i personally love flame angel and cinnamon clowns . . . my flame is the most stress free . . . everyone tries to muscle him around the tank but he just ignores them and just nips at the LR . . . no ducking or diving or running away just his same old whatever look in the face to whoever crosses his path . . . cinnamons are cute and got lots of character . . .

Spotted Mandarines, way stronger than the striped. JD

 

[Kawaii]

I really like my Blue star leopard wrasse.

 

[Fishfirst]

I really like achilles tangs for looks
and then for my dream fish, moorish idol

 

[jwhitlow1031]
