What's Your Dream Showpiece Fish?

[Yurivd]

All your fish that you select for your tank must be show pices !
The sea is to big and our tanks are to small ... So only get show pice fish

 

[Paul B]

Paulb...are you the one who collected all those tiny blue angels a few years back on long island?

I did collect some tiny blue angels but I am not sure if you are referring to someone else.

Remember that directv commercial where the russian billionaire had the tiny giraffe? I want a tiny orca. We are still talking DREAM inhabitant, even though it's not a fish!

a fully grown emperor angel in my tank would be amazing, but I'm too afraid of bullying/coral eating which might ensue.

Red sea Regal and pbt

A school of lookdowns would be cool if you have a tall tank. If you have a wide/long shallow tank, then i'd go for a blue spot ray. So cool.

But as someone else said, there are a ton of cool fish out there. Big problem is deciding which one you want that will work in YOUR tank. For me, I've got a few show fish.

I like lookdowns too. Wish I had a huge tank for them. Heres a guy posted on the fish only section of his.

For me, it would be a pair of Centropyge Hotumatua and also a harem of Paracheilinus angulatus.
See ya

Have always been a big fan of heniochus acuminatus. But went to Maui last novermber and it has become a full blown obsession. If I ever had the means to acquire an obnoxiously large tank I would have a school of at least 5. Until then I will just have to admire them from a far.

I like the australian tamarin wrasses,they sell for around $1,000 tho!!

Blue Faced Angel....alas I will never have a tank that big, or without corals...soooo I enjoy pictures!

Manta ray

Hahah Paul B - you could ride around on it while you're in the tank doing your cleaning

I was snorkeling off the coast of the Florida Keys and a very large Eagle Ray coasted by...I would guess it had to be at least 6ft across, but maybe I imagined it was bigger because it made me feel very small. They are beautiful and incredibly graceful swimmers, I can only imagine what it must be like to see a big manta ray.

My dream fish would definitely be an Achilles Tang. I've put a deposit down on an amazing Achilles, but unfortunately he was scared and jumped out of the stores display tank. After that happened, I decided to have them bring in another but unfortunately the one they brought me in, was extremely malnourished, refused to eat any form of food and wasted away within 2 weeks of being brought home.

I'll definitely some day try one again when i have the money to throw down on one again, but until then, I will simply observe their beauty in someone else's tank.

 

[Raeloni]

I'm going to throw a clown tang in there. I love these fish and they are so pretty!

 

[Ambition]

Pair or harem of P. imperetor, pair of H. passer, sohal tang, or achilles tang.

 

[CT Reefer]

a large australian copperband butterfly and anampses femininus!

 

[bebangs]

a big fat ordinary mandarin fish. always a crowd pleaser.

 

[C.Rayven]

I love the all of the types mandarin dragnets, they are my number one of all time.

My dream fish that I have been trying to track down is the White tail Bristle tooth tang however I'm not having much luck.
