@Townes_Van_Camp you have a good one for your hawkfish, right?

My mocha clownfish was just Mocha, but that made the other back and white one needing a matching name, so it's Frappacino.

My starry blenny is Dr. Tom for no reason other than the "mustache" makes me think of Tom Selleck and my daughter threw the Dr part in.

I don't even like Ethan Hawk. But, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. And I have to name my hawkfish Ethan.

hey nice to see others name their fish after musicians as well. I don't name all my fish, only the ones with personality:

My clowns are Sonnie and Cher
The clingfish is Meatloaf
My 2 damsels are the Oasis brothers
The flametail blennie is Freddie (Mercury)
