Most beautiful reef fish?

So many awesomely beautiful fish out there I cannot pick one..That is why I love this hobby so much,. I get lost in my little piece of ocean.......
 
Not exactly very obtainable, but C. colini has become a recent favorite of mine. I'm currently in the process of figuring out how to have enough money to get a pair of them. C. venusta is a very good looking dwarf angel as well, IMO.

For anthias the ignitus that Peter has posted a picture of above is stunning.
 
We have a pair of hawaiian long fin ventralis anthias. They are really lovely.
I also love candy basslets, helfrichi fire fish, and earl's wrasses to name a few.
 
I'm a big big fan of the purple tilefish. The color of purple varies all throughout the body and their eye color is absolutely stunning.

A tight fitting lid is as absolute must as these fish are extreme jumpers. I watched mine shoot through a small opening the size of a nickel.
