I think a "Lion Fish" is one of the most spectacular looking fish but I'm very partial to Nemo :)

For me it is a tie.

I love these two fish and am in the process of getting them :)

I love how formal they look.

For the colored ones I like the Mandrian (any variation) and the Catalina Goby (wish they were bigger).

For simple black and white I would go with the Morrish Idol. Who would have thought that 2 simple colors could look so dignified. This fish though I will most likely never keep one due to its unfavorable survival rate, has the best look of all the fish I have seen to day.

Most Angels look great as adolesants but dull with age.

We shall agree to disagree. That Angel is wicked awesome though, I wouldnt mind having one of those one day. I also want one of those REGAL ANGELS, i didnt think they were anything special until I saw one in person, boy was I wrong :smack: I cant even find a picture that does that fish justice, it just glows for lack of a better word

Hey man I am just messing with ya'. The Achilles is by Far my favorite Tang. I have always loved them, and Megan would kill for one. :) But alas, I do not feel as though I have any tanks large enough for a beautiful torpedo.


Regals are very pretty fish. He is mine.
