I am quite fond of the Basslets ( Royal Gramma, Black Cap), but not one of the options. Also like the wrasse's.

I voted for angels, but I also love wrasses, and for FOWLR tanks I LOVE cowfish.

I love how clown goby's just perch not all high strung bouncing around. People that arent into tanks will look in my tank then after a minute go holy crap is that fish dead?

I love the oddness of Angler and Frogfishes. Cant wait to put one in my tank soon. They get my vote for the nano.
If I had to choose a favorite fish overall, It would be a deep sea viper fish., though no one has ever kept one in captivity.

Clowns. Any kind of Clown. I like them all.

Lion Fish!

Clowns all the way. Pair up easily, absolutely beautiful, fun to watch, hardy, easily hosts with anemone, not aggressive. I would recommend a clown to anyone and everyone.

Dec 12 2004, 08:46 PM
MUAHAHAHAAAA Clowns are back in the lead as most popular fish!

Blennies! ! ! In my opinion, they have the most personality! Both the bicolor and the lawnmower. I havent had much experience with other types.
Clowns are a close second though

My vote is for the Six Line Wrasse (or wrasses in general).
The sixline in my tank is curious about everything, very active swimmer and quite social. Great fish !

I voted clown, but i also enjoy my Basslet, the Royal Gramma, a lot too.
PS: those votes for tangs, I hope, HOPE, are in large than nano tanks.

Dec 15 2004, 01:16 PM

tangs need between 4-6 ft of swimming space to be ideally happy. 26 gallons is torture! (tang popo 5-0 fuzz woop woop po-lice)
Im surprised fairy/flasher wrasses werent listed. why is groupers up there? there is no such thing as a dwarf grouper for a nano! Most dwarf angels still need 30 gallons to be happy, tangs is a no brainer. The poll should be redone for next month :
ARG!! i hate clowns!@!!@!@! I work at a LFS and all i hear is "nemo nemo nemo!" the kids say it like they are robots, or are possessed with the pixar virus. its horrible, especially when customers ask "do you have dori? i have a 7 gallon 'curved' tank and i want to get a couple of doris. can i get a scarface too?" aaahhh!! just shoot me now.

I was going to vote for the best nano-reef fish the Morish Idol. Why was this one never listed? Clearly a mistake.

I also bear an animosity towards clownfish. Whenever I'm in Big Al's there are like hordes of little kids screaming Nemo. I vowed to never own a clownfish cause I think I'd go beserk if someone evercame into my house and said "Oh, you have a Nemo, how cute?".

sharks...whales (oh crap thats not a fish)...jellyfish (dang..not a fish either so why do they call it a jellyFISH again?)...manta rays...oh, what, this isn't macro-reef.com...oh well...out of those choices tangs or clowns...i think i'll vote tangs though...just 'cause they're behind

I would sooo Say Damsels. They are hardy, Colorful, CHEAP, Readily available. Also they are fun to watch because they are active.
Kogut
Dec 22 2004, 02:31 PM
Yeah... Damsels... Sure... Can't have any other fish w/ them... But why not...

Where's the love for angels!?!?!?
Travis
Dec 22 2004, 07:32 PM
Most angels arn't reef safe. But all Clownfish that i know of are reef safe
Dan_G25
Dec 22 2004, 07:44 PM
Angels are expensive too. It's a gamble to pay 100 dollars for a fish that might eat your corals.

Dec 22 2004, 08:24 PM
Would have voted for the Leafy Seadragon but, it wasn't on the list. Since one of my favorite fish off that list is a Potter's angel, I went with angels.
Travis
Dec 28 2004, 11:24 AM
So how long will this poll run? when do we know who the winner (majority rules) is?
saxamaphone_31
Dec 28 2004, 04:44 PM
Well I guess it depends on tank size..since this is the nano site, I voted for clowns. I really love pink skunk clowns, and true percs. But my real favourite in a big reef are tangs. Desjardin and sohal being the top two
crunk
Dec 28 2004, 05:10 PM
i can't wait tell i get a tank big enough for a barracuda, the best fish
crunk
Dec 28 2004, 05:12 PM
anyway i voted goby because the little buggers #### me off when they go missing and you paid 22 bucks to let it dissappear, they're cute too
willgr1
Dec 29 2004, 10:12 AM
well i would have voted for the batfish, Platax pinnatus, but since that's not on the list i'll have to vote for my second favorite fish, the Archilles Tang......if only i have a big enough tank.
Travis
Jan 2 2005, 12:10 AM
Well, here is one more reason clowns get the majority vote

Anglers dude, anglers.
peterluber
Jan 2 2005, 12:22 AM
i had to say clowns just because that is all i have in my tank right now, and they have the best personality. also, they are so hardy. everytime i reach my hand in the tank to pull some algae off of my star polyps, he comes up to my arm. also, when he sees the bright red cyclopeez package, he swims up to the top and pokes his forehead out of the water. i put some food on my finger and he'll eat it right off.

I voted Tang, but my favorite type of fish is the Fox face and the Blue Tang
