what would be the ultimate pair of fish to keep for you?

I would say any of the big flashy pomacanthids like xanthometopon, imperator, annularis, navarchus, asfur, maculosus or perhaps H. ciliaris, clarionensis, or passer.

Equally sweet and if the system was large and stocked full of acros many of the obligate coralivore butterflies would be awesome.

I would also say a pair of Amphiprion fuscocaudatus would be amazing!

Not my photos.
 
The female and juve. Scribbled angels I have turning into male and female. Hopefully that comes to fruition.

Of fish I don't have, definitely a pair of interruptus.
 
I have a pair of black and white clowns. My attempt to get a pair of pylei didn't work yet so I am going to try and get a pair at some point. Just going to let both females turn male (in separate tanks) and get a female later. Then put the male through QT again with the female so I don't have two males.


I would love a pair of emperor, blueface, or queen angels. Some day I hope!

Brett, if you have a pair of earlei, what's stopping you on the Choats? :)

Very valid point. They do tend to get beaten up from Australia to the US. We're closer to the source, so they tend to be in better shape once out of the bag.
