IYO what is the ugliest fish alive?

oihhh. goldfish are nice. well........ok, some are hedious. but you people mention goldfish as goldfish.

try be more specific......ryukin, ranchu, oranda, moors, pearlscales.......blablablabla

btw my ryukins, oranda and pearlscales are nice. they're the most looked at fish when people come to my house. neighbours just love them. most people just look at the Oscar and say it's big and looks scary.

ok, let's not count sick fish.....i mean, you will look horrid if you were sick.

for an ugly healthy fish.......i nomitate the Blood Parrot for freshwater and the.......er, i donno what name is that puffer (the head looks like orc from LOTR) for marine fish.

- a dead one :)

I found a platty all dried up outside my tank once. We were moving an he was between the wall & the bookshelf the tank was on. It's eyes were all dried gone and he was hard like a crouton. I showed it to my wife and tried to get her to touch it, but that didn't go over well.

Pleco turds are the worst. You get a big one and the turds go on for days. EWWWWWWWW!

GRRRRR! Goldfish haters.

Note: I am not really angry just some what fustrated..../B]


I'm not a 'goldfish-hater', but, what is with those freakish goldfish that have about 4 tails all connected, they're bloated and can hardly get out of their own way, and....have 'pop-eye' to boot?? How can that be "fancy" or any other term that relates to a normal looking Goldfish. The 'pop-eye' makes the fish cost more...

I have some in the backyard 'water-garden, --pond' that look like perfectly fine Goldfish, that are rather large now resembling Koi more than the feeder Goldfish I bought.

By the way, the more "pop-eyed" the more they seem to cost. :eek:
 
all fish are nice in the eyes of their owners

all fish that are perfectly healthy are nice in the owner eyes but the blood parrot cichlids have to be the worst or brown arcas,flag cichlids,slimy loach thay are mostly brown and stupid. elphant noses are the cutest fish with that worm thingy oh i live those fish
 
DOG FACE PUFFERS.....YUCK!!!

My wife has threatened my life if I ever even thought about bringing one home.....Look like a floating turd with a couple of fins......They make my skin crawl looking at them....I saw huge albino oscar that was a little creepy looking too.....:eek:
