People always talk about reef safe or not reef safe but are there any not fish safe fish?
 
Yep, there are a good number of fish eating fish....the list above and I throw in frogfish/anglerfish. If it fits in it's mouth, it's dinner!

I had a long night last night, and I can't understand the question. Worth mentioning: I might be an idiot. FISH SAFE FISH? My brain hurts.
 
Grouper, sharks, big morays, many puffers, Mocha clown, the list goes on. Just about anything super predatory or aggressive counts. Of course, in the right size tank and with the right tankmates, there are almost no fish that cannot be kept with something else.
Perhaps the only fish, fresh or salt, that comes to mind is the electric eel, any fish with it would soon die or be in a perpetual state of torture from the constant shocks.
 
Parrot fish. They eat coral rock.
 
instead of peaceful, semi-aggressive, aggressive let's have: fish safe, fish safe with caution, not fish safe
 
there must be a category of hand safe fish. Maroon clowns are NOT hand safe.
