ULTIMATE Fish?

[Scarfish]

What is YOUR ultimate fish??? What fish would YOU go ultimate lengths to obtain?

 

[pat8you]

Achilles Tang

and

Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Garden Eel

both are quite a challenge though....

 

[mr_X]

it's a toss up for me.
i sure do love the undulate trigger. amazing

i also love the wartskin angler-

and finally the rhinopias-

 

[mr_X]

strange..it won't let me post the wartskin angler image. well, you can just google it.

That trigger is super nice do u know it's requirements

 

[mr_X]

yes i do. a big tank and very few tank mates. they undulate trigger is the most aggressive of the triggers. i've seen them do some gruesome things to much larger fish.

This is a very easy fish to obtain but again can not have many tank mates, but I love the look of emperor angels

green mandarin, achilles tang. and some anglers are pretty awesome.

why thank you! the mandarin is what got me into SW in the first place lol

 

[Itzblackmayne]

I have mine vie always loved red tail catfish but for how big they get there hard to own and know with my 750 gallon he's happy

 

[Innovator]

Well I would have to say that as much as I do love Queen angelfish (Holacanthus ciliaris) and Golden angelfish (Centropyge arauntias), I always come back to Giant Pacific octopus (enterocotpus dofleini).

Your welcome. Same here mandarins are about the coolest fish, seconded to cuddle fish.

 

[Bettababe1011]

I know these are very common(any Walmart will usually carry them) but I am partial to Betta splendens(sp?). They are the friendliest little guys!!

 

[Crepe]

Marine Betta all the way. They seem to have fallen out of popularity in the past 5 years but they are gorgeous fish.
