What is the biggest fish in your tank?

[Gumbies R Us]

For a lot of us, we have a lot of different fish in our tank, some small and some that are quite large. I am wondering what is the largest fish you have in your tank and are you happy with that one fish?

Hippo and Fox face are about 6 inches currently and growing fast! All other tangs are about 5 inches…

5inch plus yellow tang. Mostly happy. Although it doesn’t really pick at rocks. So

naoko wrasse. roughly 2.5"-3"

Foxface, boy do those grow fast. Makes my adult regal look small!

My magnificent faceface is at 6" but will soon be surpassed by a juvenile vlamingii tang -- she's already at 5"...and growing! Yes, I'm happy with it -- comes in handy when I need a justification for a larger tank upgrade! lol

Blue tang 6 years old, say 7”
Been good so far.

Lionfish. About 12” long. He’s in a 135 gallon fowlr. The most docile fish I have. Just gotta watch the spikes!

Send pics? I love the lion fish when first started in the hobby.

My tank is small so my biggest fish is a tomini Tang that is about 3 and a half inches

Naso tang, currently about 4 inches

Depends. The biggest fish right now is a tie between my jawfish and foxface. The fish that will get the biggest is my engineer goby.

I've got a 6" yellow sleeperhead goby that's quite the character. It and the firefish goby seem to be pals and sleep in the same cave every night, and not always in the same cave night to night.

It's a toss up between my Foxface and my Hippo Tang. They're both just about 4", but the Tang might be fractions of an inch bigger. Nevertheless, both have nearly doubled in size within the last 6-7 months.

I have a young tank so there is a lot of growing to do. My foxface is the largest normal fish, but is still probably under 5".

My snowflake eel is the largest overall, but it is a pup at about 13" long. It isn't much longer although it has almost doubled in girth in the 3 months I have had it.

My biggest fish is a zebra moray about 24 inches now. If you mean fish that look like fish, then it is a toss up between my achiles tang and magnificent foxface, although my parrotfish is quite the tank.

 

[exnisstech]

Largest currently is a naso at 7-8 inches. Previously would have been a zebra moray over 30 inches.

Same for my largest, Magnificent.

Man those Vlamingii’s grow fast. I picked a small one up years ago from someone tearing down a tank in a hurry. I don’t think he fed the fish much because it became a friendly giant in my fowlr tank fast.

I have three engineer gobies that are probably just over 12 inches (it’s hard to tell they rarely come completely out). Out of my more traditional fish shaped fish my foxface is the largest I have at around 6 inches.

 

[steveschuerger]

Foxface about 4-5”
