What's the most fun fish you have ever kept

[blackmath]

My pair of Gardneri killifish...they are the most interesting fish I've ever kept, the male is like an overbearing, slightly abusive, but totally lovestruck boyfriend. I love watching them!

I don't care that they are common, tiny, and generally seen as beginner fish, I love my zebra danios!!!

Of everything I have owned its got to be this guy. Loaded with personality and always surprises me. Parachromis managuensis x Herichthys cyanoguttatus hybrid.

He's absolutely gorgeous!

55 gallon elephant nose tank.
30 gallon vampire shrimp, green lace shrimp and snails.

My 2 avocado puffers are awesome. They're supposed to be really rare and they're so cute, zooming all over the tank.

I have a wide variety of fish. African cichlids, SA/CA cichlids, community type, schoolers etc and my favorite are these mollies my wife picked out. They're pretty boring to watch, but they will swim in to my hand in the tank like they want held or petted. Weird fish!

I have had a German Blue Ram for 2 weeks now and he is very entertaining to watch. Much better then any other fish I had.

I've kept a lot of different types of fish over the years but kuhlis are definitely my favorite and so entertaining! I love when they rest in unusual positions or places:

Seeing them peeking out from hiding spots:

Just being themselves

Loach fans unite! I love that there have been 3 different kinds listed so far! (5 if you count the fact that you've got at least three species; I see pangio oblonga, pangio kuhli and I think maybe pangio cuneovirgata?)

^I'm a loach convert as well, had cories for years but switched over to kuhlis and I'm sold lol. They're awesome.

I think someone needs to start a loach discussion thread

Over the years I've had kuhlis, dwarf chain, queens, and yo-yos. Loaches are awesome
