What is your favorite type of fish?
Travis
Clowns biggrin.gif
greatreef16
wrasses, but that not an option
bobioden
I am quite fond of the Basslets ( Royal Gramma, Black Cap), but not one of the options. Also like the wrasse's.
Shaz
I voted for angels, but I also love wrasses, and for FOWLR tanks I LOVE cowfish.
J-Bass
For nanos: black & white occellaris, small gobies, assessors.
WetWilly
Blackened Redfish with a side order of otsyters CHILLED mind you, cocktail sauce must has alot of fresh horseraddish, in fact ....oh uhhhh wrasses, basslets, eels. on your list, Gobies.
warrior_boy
purple firefish
Smokin-Reefer
candy basslet, hands down....too bad they are sooooo expensive!
Dan_G25
red sea panda puffer, but on ur list i'd go with lion
ebin
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?
Angel Higuera
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.
Cesar
Clowns. Any kind of Clown. I like them all.
Neon
Lion Fish! biggrin.gif
bowfront26
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.
Travis
MUAHAHAHAAAA Clowns are back in the lead as most popular fish! biggrin.gif
JUMBO
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
Seamus
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 !

bravoreefer
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.
mikedege
why do tangs need to be in larger tanks???? i got a 24g nano, is that big enuf for a purple tang?

thanks, Mike

Robots.
Travis
AH HA! Clowns are back in the lead tongue.gif 61 votes biggrin.gif cool.gif
SSMangrove
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.

Gobies are only down by 4

GO GOBIES!!!!
Dan_G25
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?".
FiShTaCo
Yes the clowns...haha, definetely da b0mb!! I favor black Percs.

Tigah? I looove yur icon...hint hint hehe
aquaman7
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
ebin
Wow only 351 votes out of over 11,000 we still got tons of voters still out there lets see the votes people!

I would sooo Say Damsels. They are hardy, Colorful, CHEAP, Readily available. Also they are fun to watch because they are active.
Kogut
Yeah... Damsels... Sure... Can't have any other fish w/ them... But why not... wink.gif Where's the love for angels!?!?!?
Travis
Most angels arn't reef safe. But all Clownfish that i know of are reef safe biggrin.gif
Dan_G25
Angels are expensive too. It's a gamble to pay 100 dollars for a fish that might eat your corals.
reef hugger
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
So how long will this poll run? when do we know who the winner (majority rules) is?
saxamaphone_31
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 wink.gif
crunk
i can't wait tell i get a tank big enough for a barracuda, the best fish
crunk
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
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
Well, here is one more reason clowns get the majority vote cool.gif

snostorm
Love my clowns, they eat right out of my hand.
Travis
Same here. Mine are tank breed..how about yours?
Angel Higuera
Anglers dude, anglers.
peterluber
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.
msn711
I voted angels, but my true favorite are wrasses.
ebin
Yea clowns do have great personality that marlin and nemo seemed like real swell guys. lol
kabal2
i vote for clowns but i really like sharks, i have 1 in my 2.5 nano
keschee
Definately love the Picasso trigger, but in my 37g gold stripe maroons will have to do.
Fox_face
I voted Tang, but my favorite type of fish is the Fox face and the Blue Tang
