If You Could Only Keep 10 Fish...

... What would they be? For me the lucky 10 would be...

1. Regal Angel (Red Sea of course)

2. Zebra Moray Eel

3. Quoyi Parrotfish (what can I say, I'm in love with the one I've got in QT)

4. Royal Pencil Wrasse (a healthy, piggish specimen of course :o )

5. Moorish Idol (same as above ^ )

6. Blue Dot Jawfish

7. Marginalis Butterfly

8. Blue Lined Angel

9. Red Sea Mimic Blenny (IMO *the* most beautiful blenny out there)

10. White Spotted Pygmy Filefish (I love this fish :frog:)

... What about you?
 
My list would be:

1.) Clarkii Clownfish. I've fallen in love with these guys from the beginning, but never wanted to admit it because I thought I love Gold Band Maroon Clownfishes. I was wrong.

2.) Regal Tang. Beauties.

3.) Twin Spot Wrasse. Their pattern is just amazing.

4.) Tomato Clownfish. Love the red. And their perpetual confuzzled look.

5.) Citron Goby. Perches everywhere. Even in the middle of the water column (I swear).

6.) Sailfin Tang. Oh my god when it stretches...

That's all I have for now...

Those Juvie Twin Spots are awesome, I just wish they stayed that way. Unfortunately once they mature they become these massive, misshapen green monsters. They almost resemble a tamarin wrasse at first glance when young though

Man, I'm right there with you when in comes to those Harleys. Hands down, one of the most stunning fish you'll ever come across. You'll see I even set up a thread with the hopes that it would get loaded with people raving about their relative reefsafe-ness. Unfortunately, I came to the conclusion that he would probably make a meal out of most of my CUC (outside of my urchins and stars). One day though, when I have that big FOWLR, he'll be the star of the show :dance:

Any ten fish? Hmmmm..
Porcupine puffer
Mandarin
Emperor angel
Octopus (not a fish, but we are fantasizing)
Leopard eels I keep finding in tide pools
Boxfish, any variety, or cowfish
A separate specialist jellyfish tank (also not fish, I know)
Purple and blue lobsters (maybe I need to reconsider my definition of fish)
And probably my all time favorites and the only ones I would ever actually keep, the two tidepool gobies in my tank. They're like having wet dogs.
