I started going with the uglies when I started noticeing the prettier the meaner lol

I think my first "odd" was a banjo. they are soooo layed back I picked mine up by its tail one time and pulled him to near the surface and let go. he just kinda sank back to the bottom, then swam off lol

Had a Leaf fish too, way too cool! I don't know if they get bored sitting around trying to look like a leaf or he was just doing exercises? But it looked like he'd yawn once in a while! From my fish atlas it said they eat "fish" thats all, just fish. I never saw mine eat anything but guppies. They change colors kinda like an octopus does to match there inviroment.

Also had a Lion fish, I think it was supposed to be more of a brackish fish. I'd read about'em making noise. Thats how they got there name I think, I heard him one night after turning the lights out, a deap rumble and kinda like a bull frog. He reminded me of Oscar the Grouch with his fuzzy looking face.
