Favourite fish and why
 
Just curious what your favourite reef safeish fish(s) in your tank and why if possible.

Mine was my hawaiin blue chin trigger.... RIP

I like all of our fish but I especially like our blond naso tang. He has TONS of personality and has been a great addition to the tank. He recognizes me and comes right up close when I'm sitting there or walk by, almost trying to rub up against me, eats out of my hand, etc. He's a cutie. I say he because his tail is changing. I think he's growing some banners! :biggrin:

My occelaris clownfish playing in the anemones. They can't figure out if they like their original LTA or the RBTA's that are in there. I didn't think most clowns went back and forth with anemones on a daily basis.

Flame Hawkfish, tons of color, very aware of whats outside the tank. Like the Peek-A-Boo behaviour :lol:

Toss up between my Blue Throat Trigger and Harlequin Tuskfish.
The Trigger is always playing in the flow from the Vortechs. He lets the flow push him straight backward about 8 inches and then he uses just enough fin power to hold himself steady with the flow directly in his face; just like a dog with its head out the car window.
The Tuskfish is just a great looking fish. With his large blue teeth he looks like he'd rip any fish to pieces but is really a big baby.

favorite fish
 
My Achilles Tangs! They are the reason I got into the hobby... I love that orange tear drop pattern on the black/brown base colour.
