I have seen top 10 acros, zoa threads, but can't recall any favorite fish threads. I'm sure they are out there but was just curious what people's thoughts are as I have been helping a friend stock a tank.

Here are a few of my favorites of my past and present residents off the top of my head. I have a lot of tanks!:wink:
1. Ocellaris (my favorites I have are the black and whites in my avatar but the female bites:bigsmile:)

2. Midas blenny

3. McCosker flasher wrasse

4. Green spotted Mandarin

5. Flame fairy wrasse

6. Bluespot jawfish

7. Linneatus wrasse-most beautiful fish I have but can not add any more wrasses because he picks on them

8. Yellow tang-bought from a reefer who took his tank down, very tame

9. Stars and stripes puffer (when I had the FOWLR)

10. Clown trigger (love these fish but again no longer have as I got rid of the FOWLR)

My favorite fish is my Scooter Blenny. He's quite the character. I love my Sailfin and Scopas too.

Of course my clownfish :)

Maybe Bonnie and Clyde, they are my wild onyx that I received from another hobbyist, they have been out of the ocean for 3 years. They are some riders!

Joculator has been my number one for years then my candy basslet would be second.

PS if any one knows where I can find a pair of jocs please pm me.
 
I would have to say my favorite fish is an achiles tang. Sad that my 120 gallon is not big enough to have one. I also love the labouti flasher wrasse. My most recent addition that is my favorite fish in my tank though, is the radiant wrasse. Really cool wrasse and a heck of a workhorse:)
 
Gotta be the sohal tang! Achillies is a close second.
 
My favorite fish are 1) Any kind of trigger, especially Blue Line and Huma huma
2) Psychadelic Mandarin
3) Queen Angel
4) Green Wolf Eel
5) Lunare Wrasse
6) Dogface type puffers (all Colors)
7) Lopezi Unicorn tang
8) Jawfish (pearly, or bluespot)
9) Flame Angel
10) Fu Manchu lionfish
:wink:
