My fish never sit still for a pic.
My favorite is my Three spot Gourami who always comes and greets me at a specific spot in the front of the tank. She is very friendly but likes to be left alone with her pellets and even chases away the T-Barbs and the Rainbow Shark!
I also have this one dominant T-Barb who's antics are true comedy to behold. He would go on these mental sprees and chase every other barb in the tank in circles and then puff up like a body builder! Sometimes he steals all the food and then can't swin properly for about 15 mins. (fatty!)
And of course I love cichlids but never planned on keeping them from the beginning so I just watch the ones in my LFS display tank.

I knew you'd like that one hehe - totally was directed at ya I was just kidding too... I would also have a leaf fish if I could find one out this way. They're rare. You're lucky
I completely agree about the leaf fish hunting a skills, I was watching one eat on YouTube and the guppy was gone in under .2 seconds. Plus it's a pretty cool looking fish

Can they change their colouration to blend in with surroundings?
They really do look like leaves... So cool
You should try breeding them if you could get your hands on another! I think you've already found a couple buyers

I am not willing to order online so that may be why it took me so long. Breeding is very difficult and I dont have the time or patiance.
Mine do change color. Sometimes really dark sometimes really light. Right after eating they turn a reddish orangish hue. Very cool. I dont think I am very good at feeding them because I dont gut load food but the are still happy and healthy. They do better with lots of hiding areas.

See now that is a really, really hard question. I love Oscars. Mine had such a huge personality. He was the only fish I can honestly say I played with. But I am really getting into GBRs and angels. I also can't wait to get my l 144 l/f when he comes in next week!

My betta's are probably my favorite. Out of the two I would have to pick my red betta Hades because he has such a funny attitude. Likes to swim around the tank flaring up and showing off. A friend that I just want are violet goby. They are so ugly they are cute, lol.
