Scooped up a yellow brotulid female at my LFS today to go in with my seahorses. Hoping I can find a male soon. I'll try and get a quick video of her in the bag before I release her into the tank and probably never see her again.

For me - Marine betta
Followed by firefish goby
 
This fish reminds me of a banana yellow black ghost knifefish with the way it moves the fins.

Quick poor quality video video in bag:


And a quick low quaility pic in the bag:

For me currently it’s my trio of these guys (Pseudocheilinops ataenia).

Out of all the fish I’ve ever owned it was this guy, a Discrodipinna griessingeri.

I'm going to be the idiot to ask why this big butt brain coral did not survive and why small gsp is placed on it , great fish I assume :)

Not an idiot at all! I actually got that skeleton in a bucket of dry rock in a trade. I decided to use it to grow a GSP colony on, so glued a piece on here. It doesn't grow anywhere nearly as fast in 70 degree water though

Was firefish when they were in my bigger tank with many occupants and I eventually lost them. Now that I placed 2 new one in a peaceful smaller setting with pajama cardinal and scissortail gobies, they are constantly out, and eat a lot.
In my big tank, surprisingly, my hippo tang, I have for 3 years is not really shy, but a scary cat. He goes and hide as soon as he hears or see something though he is the second largest fish in the tank.
