If you generalize a little... what kind of fish do you like???

[FriendlyGeek]

Not rare at all, but I think my favourite may be the Rummy Nose Tetra. I love the way they shoal together, their body shape is torpedo like.....it's very cool! And I like that they have pops of colour at both ends
Our GSP Dotty was a favourite pet of mine, so much personality, she would come up to the glass to greet you and used to give the most amazing side-eye looks if you disturbed her LOL

I like Tuna, Salmon, Walleye and Herring. With the appropriate setup, they are amazing !

Joking aside... I like Gouramies, Tetras, Rasboras, Cories the most.

The strangest I ever had was a Spotted Gar that grew 15 inches long, it lived 6 years and ate everything, fish, frogs, rats, and lots of crickets... As long as it was live food. I never had a tank that needed that much water changes. But it was a really mean and scary looking fish. I loved him.

I liked your first list best as I am an avid fisherman. I really would like to keep a few warm water gamefish, but they don't tend to do that well in a reasonably sized aquarium.

Not enough experience to have a fav. Have 7 species and like em all.

 

[Fishfunn]

Discus, Roseline barbs, clown loaches, marbled angels, corys, plecos, cardinal tetras, eels

 

[MaloK]

I fished up eels, Not an easy thing to get off the hook.

Yes, thats right. Try grabbing one in your tank too. I had a peacock eel for about 7 years that I grew fond of.

In the late 80's, with the money we could get... A 8$ rattling bobbit... was worth a try not to lose.

 

[Herpin Man]

I’m partial to tetras.

 

[WhistlingBadger]

Discus, Roseline barbs, clown loaches, marbled angels, corys, plecos, cardinal tetras, eels

Strong choices.

 

[GaryE]

Hmm, I'll go with families rather than species. Killifish, Cichlids, Labyrinth fish, wild type livebearers, tetras, Corys, rainbows, blue eyes... I think that just about covers it. Don't ask me to put them in any order though.

 

[OnlyGenusCaps]

Anything I can breed for points in the club! I do have a bias for cichlids based on my records. Though these days my favorite aquatic things seem to be tadpoles. Sure, they are only temporarily aquatic, but nonetheless that seems to be the direction I am headed at the moment.

 

[Connershawzz]

Bichir , specifically delhezi, love the pattern I love how they eat

 

[Ridgerunner]

I keep coming back to my old favorite, Pearl Gouramis. Like the Angels, they are stately and elegant. Mine come to me when I walk up to the tank.

 

[TwoTankAmin]

I prefer the live ones. The dead ones are boring.
