| My favorite fresh water fish would be the blood parrot cichlid because they respond to different people differently . Also bettas are cool fish also. |

| Bettas are actually really rewarding once in a heated, filtered tank. They have wonderful personalities. My favorite fish is the cory catfish. |

outside of a deathcup in a filtered heated tank, they change so much!!! |

| I love my Jack Dempsey.
He's not a bully, knows exactly where the food is, and has turned incredible colors since I got him as a little guy. |

| I like Jackey Boy the best out of my cichlids. He's a little shy but very strong at the same time. He displays gorgeous colors and is always active. They are my favorite. |

| i't could only be my shubunkin Bill. Bill is gettin quite big (6" and quite chubby... er... full bodied. he's sensitive. lol), and is always swimmin around all over the place as fast as he can, then stops, turns, and does the same thing again. Him and Ted, my comet, are always together. it's so cute. He's really pretty too. i'll post some pics here soon. btw, i can't find a forum here for goldfish! am i not looking hard enough, or isn't there one?? goldfish don't get the credit they deserve. they are amazing and entertaining fish. |

| My cories are my favorites. The way they will just pile around a sinker pellet and sit there the whole time jockying for position so they can get their mouths directly on the pellet. |

| I have to say I love my little Platy, Rick! She was born In my very first tank, just the day after I got new fishies. She's such a fun little Red Wag Platy.
EDIT: I almost forgot to say Bettas! I absolutely love them, and have been BEGGING my mom to let me get one, but she's pretty darn stubborn about it hehe. I keep telling her how cute and fun bettas can be! |

|  Out of the fish I own, my favorite is my betta. Alpha is so much fun to interact with, I love his personality. After him, I would say my new angels. The rest are around even, except the Buenos Aires tetra. He's at the bottom of the list right now for beating up all the pristella tetras. As soon as I finish with the camallanus meds, he's going back to the store.
As for favorite fish in general, it's still bettas, but I also like corys and puffers. Oh, and goldfish and koi! I'll probably never have puffers or koi, but I hope to have corys and goldfish at some point. |

| Favorite Fish Bloody Parrots....Their "personalities" are just wonderful. They know me now after 7 years. When I clean the inside tank glass they try to take the diamond out of my ring...If that happened we're talking Sushi! lol They are a wonderful fish. |
