YOUR favorite fish !!

but are those fishes hard ? i just got a long nosed hawkfish... was eyeing one for a long long time i also got a pair of gobies, they were actually a pair in the lfs ..but as soon as i put them in .. they split up and went into seperate caves.. sigh .. would they get back together again ? any experience ? oh and are anglers hard to keep ?
 
I really like my blue gudgeon's.... I tried to find a pic online to link to, but none of them show the fish in true color... :(

good news .. my blue cheek goby pair are back together and sharing the same burrow ... coming out to feed together. its really cute .. the long nosed hawk is doing well too. cept for my YS maroon clown.. im not sure if its eating... it seems to be lazing around feeding time.. making a few mad rushes towards the brine shimp floating around. sometimes he stops before reaching it, sometimes he swallows it and spits it out.. is there any problem with this ??
 
My favorite is my Potters Angel. I love the colors and he does real well in the tank. I love when I look over and see a splash of color dart by!
 
You were asking if Anglers were hard to keep. I have kept Anglers since I was a teenager (20+ years). It really depends on the angler. If you can get one that will eat frozen out of your hand or off a stick, you should have no problem. If you are willing to get ghost shrimp or (sorry everyone) put out the money to feed damsels or peppermint shrimp, you can go that way. I actually had a very small one once that would swin into a net to get at guppies. (this was in the 70's when we didnt know any better than to feed freshwater).

Ask your LFS how they are eating and watch them eat.

Hopefully you get a good one, because they are not cheap.

I got my latest one from Live Aquaria and he eats off a feeding stick (I WAS LUCKY) :bowing:
