Whats your favorite fish?

[A201]

It's a toss up, Nimbochromis Fuscotaeniatus or the Festae (Red Terror).

 

[Platylover]

I really love my Microctenopoma ansorgiis. They’re likely my favourite fish currently.

 

[BlackMolly99]

I haven't actually owned some of these but....

Neon Tetras
Zebra Danios
Bristle Nose Pleco
Betta
Oto Cat

I hope to get Zebra Danios at least after stores open up

 

[jmaldo]

Have to Agree with Feohw

Bolivian Rams and runner-up Electric Blue Acaras
The Bolivians have such personality and character, I liken them to puppy dogs.

Bolivians

[Leeman75]

Lotta love for Corys!!

 

[Desi]

Bettas!

 

[BluMan1914]

I forgot to add Clown Loach to the list.

 

[Lebeeze]

Red tail black shark!!! At least for the fish I've actually owned!! I really want an oscar in the future and I may change my mind when I get one!!

 

[BluMan1914]

Wait wait wait...I have one more,(for now)..Celebes Rainbow.
This fish has beautiful understated colors that is best with a dark substrate, and a dark background.

 

[flyinGourami]

Wait did I seriously forget goldfish... I've learned to like plecos, especially albino bristlenoses and common plecos. I've always been interested in annual killis. For some reason I mostly like small fish lol.

 

[faydout]

Keyhole Cichlids have become my favorites. I've kept Rams, and Bolivians were my favorites. The Keyholes are like the fun, derpy, puppy side of the Bolivian Rams... but they're more refined. Almost more Posh. Other than eating 7 of the 10 nerites I bought (3 were somehow cool????). these are the most laid back cichlids I've ever owned.

I want to hear about your favorite fish! Don’t forget the “WHO” name/species and tell us WHY it’s your favorite. Post your pics! And let’s vote! Most liked wins. Make your fish famous.

 

[JuiceBox52]

I have the best fish I'll post pics tomorrow. Although I'm torn between a couple types I have....betta pugnax or betta dimidiata? Which to put, that is the question?

 

[blennylover2323]

okay this is my favourite fish...
this is Pav, a 7 year old albino glowlight tetra (even though they normally live for 3) with special needs! even though she is blinded in one eye, has a massive kink she has outlived all of the other fish in her tank. she has a little cave all to herself and if feed specially.
meet Pav!

 

[AquEric]

It's between these two my Vail zebra angelfish or my long fin GBR breeder the angelfish I plan to breed the GBR gives off some beautiful fry

 

[phnx314]

Jamal, my bristlenose pleco! He has a lot of personality and is so much fun to watch. I’ve had him for around 7 months and he’s sooo much bigger. I got him as a baby.

He can be a bit of a bully, but it’s all food motivated bullying. Or, “don’t you dare come near my log” lol. He tears my cories fins and my clown plecos fins sometimes, but he never really hurts them.

How much bigger do you think he’s gonna get?

 

[FinalFins]

parasphaerichthys ocellatus. Burmese chocolate gourami.

They are the cutest fish I have right now. I think their shyness adds to it, and they do the bendy thing sparkling gouramis do. I like that. Also they are tiny as heck.

I really like pale, colorless fish.

Pretty rare find so I'm proud of my boys

 

[jkkgron2]

This is Larry, my bristlenose pleco.

He’s about 8-9 months old, he loves algae wafers and tends to chase away corys if they try to steal his beloved wafers.

I’m planning on using him for breeding once his mate Lucy recovers from a weird white bacterial infection on her face. He’s grown a ton since I got him and isn’t shy anymore!

 

[A201]

Might be hard to top this one. Its a very rare male "Copadichromis Virginals Gold". I've only seen one for sale & I quickly scooped him up.

 

[Feohw]

My favourite is my Bolivian ram, Samson. I love the colours of Bolivian rams as well as their personality. This guy is a bit of a ladies man, constantly switching things up. He has a new girlfriend after every spawn. Great dad too, he'll even stand up to my pearl gourami and vampire shrimp when they come near.

 

[jinjerJOSH22]

Here’s one of my favourites and oldest fish I have
My Three Spot Gourami, Trichopodus Trichopterus

 

[AquaticQueen]

My betta, Rex is my favorite fish in the whole world. He's grown a ton since I got him. I do have a picture of him when he was small but I can't get it uploaded. He started out pink-bodied with purple fins. This is him now.

I am clearly no photographer, LOL.

 

[A201]

Feohw Having once kept Bolivian Rams, I think your Samson is uncommonly awsome. Great job keepkng him.

 

[Wrench]

This is my black ghostknife fish. Hes definately the most interesting.

 

[AquaticQueen]

This is my black ghostknife fish. Hes definately the most interesting.

I always found black ghostknife fish to be really cool. I've always wanted one but I have to live my cichlid-keeping dream first.

 

[Wrench]

But this is my favorite and most invested fish.
My 1.5 year old Bala Shark.

Just gorgeous!

Wow! Very interesting indeed!

I love Bettas and Rex is quite a beauty!

I’m super excited to spend some time on google about this one. What a find! Really pretty.

 

[MomOfLiveBearers]

Amano. What's amano? Nothin! What's amano with you?!
This is Timon my amano. He does a great job cleaning my 15 gallon and is such a blast to watch as he goes for swims around the tank.

 

[Wrench]

I always found black ghostknife fish to be really cool. I've always wanted one but I have to live my cichlid-keeping dream first.

He or she is the weirdest dang fish I have ever seen.
I love the odd balls and un common things.
And me living where I do lend to me getting a larger variety of fish.
But even these are only at my l.f.s once or twice a year, My keeper said I was very lucky to get him...I'm even luckier because my wife was the one that spotted him not me.
Very very cool fish.

That's my dream fish

 

[Iggypuffer]

My favorite fish is my betta, Alfred the wise. He has so much personality!

What is your favorite fish? It can be a favorite species or a particular pet that you had/have.

 

[Dunk2]

German blue ram.

 

[Iggypuffer]

I had a ram once. Sadly he died of hole in head.

 

[Broggy]

I love bettas too, I'm super exited to pick up a betta from LFS, but I cant yet, because my stuff is still shipping from amazon. I've been waiting for 2 monthsead:

 

[FinalFins]

The favorite fish I have are my gouramis which I have learnt to love (profile picture), the favorite fish I don't have would probably be a tie between wild discus and laetacara araguaie.

 

[faydout]

laetacara araguaie

Laetacara Curviceps for me. I'm debating picking a pair up at some point for the 55 my 4 Keyholes are in.

 

[A201]

I think my favorite fish tonight is the male Red Empress.

 

[Mii]

My favorites are probably the genuses trichogaster(honey, thick lipped, dwarf, and banded gouramis), corydoras, bettas, and I've always wanted an arowana but can't afford a tank big enough. What are your favorite fush tell me in the replies

 

[RomeoOscar]

Betta splendens

 

[jinjerJOSH22]

I have a slight obsession with Gourami and a woman who keeps Gourami *cough*
My absolute favourite is the Three Spot(Trichopodus Trichopterus) but lately I've really been enjoying keeping Paradise Gourami(Macropodus Opercerlaris) fascinating fish with tonnes of personality.

 

[GouramisAreSuperior]

I really like gouramis, athough I also love bettas and platies

 

[Utar]

Here is Nina and Pinta my two Veil Tail Angel Fish.

Nina


Pinta

 

[Animefishes]

My favorite fish is the first fish I ever got, she is a hamburg platy and her name is petunia the platy, she is actually pregnant rn, but here's a pic

 

[QCAquaholic]

Rainbowfish
Right now I have pseudomugil gertrudae, pseudomugil luminatus and celebes rainbows. Once my 75 gallon is ready I'll be getting some of the big boys.
The pseudomugils look so cute with their pompom fins. Celebes always great me at the tank.

 

[catperson]

Hello Everyone! What is your favorite fish?
It can be one you own or one you have always wanted.
Mine is the betta fish
They are such gorgeous fish and i just adore them!

 

[NotSoAggressiveAquatics]

Flowerhorn

 

[SomeoneFISHy]

Mine has to be Ocellaris Clownfish. Even though many fish have way cooler abilities and looks, mine have been with me for years, and stuck with me through tank wipe-outs, ammonia spikes, new tank mates! They are very fun to watch, and resilient.

 

[FishGirl115]

Welcome to fishlore by the way!
That's a tough one! Probably betta or plecos. But I love all my fish!

 

[Dunk2]

Tough question, but I’d say GBR.

 

[A201]

I think today my favorite fish is the Mossy Green Tiger Barb. Not a bad fish for a dollar & change. Lol
