Since we’re talking dream fish.

A Unicorn/puppy fish would be cool and super cute for my kids.

An opera or rap (I know, very opposite) singing fish is a definite. (Changed this to rapping opera fish)

Lastly, a bottle opener fish that jumps out of the water to open my beer. That one should probably first. A real crowd pleaser.

Pakistani butterflys for me:

 

[jbow50]

Interuptus angel- Got it!
Gem tang- got it!
Conspicuous angel- too rich for my blood unless someone feels generous

Lol how is a conspicuous angel to rich but not a gem tang!
Mine is a powder blue tang- have it!
A unicorn tang
And an Achilles tang
Although once I complete that list one day I'll probably have made a new one.

 

[Steam fan]

Mine would be
Marine betta: got it
Pearlscale butterfly: still looking

Third would be an arapaima, sadly I will most likely will never own because I can’t afford a 10,000 gallon tank.

Research for one. I have to do more reading on them. My tank is only 40 gallons without a sump. I think they need larger? That and the fact that I can’t fond them locally.

How much are they now a days? 40 may be the minimum. They are more of a stalking fish than swimmer. They can do well on fewer but larger meals but mine is happy taking smaller pieces of frozen with the rest of the tank. He's awesome

Haha I started up this thread because I wanted ideas for stocking my up and coming 130g.

Nothing beats a whats your favourite thread for ideas!

Is that a scooter dragonet you already have?

yes I already have the scooter! I love him!! He is so cute and has great personality. I love how he floats around the tank.

It’s a marine betta

I thought it looked like it was shaped like a beta. Never seen one!!! Ummmm . . . totally going on the top of my list . . . crap. I just built a new tank. Now I need a bigger one

 

[Zoaeasy]

I saw a niger trigger in an lfs, it was in a massive fowlr with an ausi harlequin tusk and a load of angels and butterflies.

It looked awesome and I don't know if it was the lighting but it seemed to change shades of blue to purple. Beautiful fish.

I have niger trigger and my favourite with my limited fish . Fantastic personality and incredible blue colour.
My dream fish is Moorish idols in a very large system. Remember diving with them when I grew up in South Africa.

 

[cycled123]

1) Mandarin
2) Parrot Fish
3) Harlequin Tusk

Can you tell I like lots of color? lol

[Charles4400]

One day in a fowl or predator tank:

1. Japanese Dragon Eel

2. A wartskin angler with great patterns like this:

3. Giant sized Emperor Angel

...runner up is an Aus. Harelquin Tusk which I already have but still counts as a dream fish.

 

[gr8birds]

Achilles tang for sure, Clown trigger is another fav, and a male lineatus wrasse.

 

[Maritimer]

Quoy's parrotfish ... in my display.

Regal angelfish ... in QT; fingers crossed!

Last is kind of a tossup between two personalities that couldn't be more different - Copperband butterfly and Powderblue tang.

There are others, for sure . . .

[Young@Heart]

My Answers would probably be considered boring: Blonde Naso, Blue Hippo and Achilles Tang - Don't think I would ever have a tank big enough though.

 

[xaflatoonx]

These are mine... great thread by the way.
