HockeyDrumsFish Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 The new GaryBusey Wrasse is pretty weird! 🙂 Seriously though, I've always found the tassled filefish to be one of the weirder fish out there but they are hit or miss as far as 'reef safe'. And then you've also got the Cubicus Boxfish but we know about them... I'm a big fan of a full size engineer goby. Looks like an eel but it's a goby - and very active! 1 Quote Link to comment

Do you want to keep other fish with them? I'm liking a variety of Predators at the moment. Fu Manchu Lion Fish, Leaf Fish, Scorpinos Quote Link to comment

Ratvan Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Hawkfish? Waspfish? Would love to see someone do a Sea Goblin or Ghoulfish tank 1 Quote Link to comment

But venomous and a predator so whatever fits in the mouth is likely to be eaten 1 Quote Link to comment
MainelyReefer Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 White spotted Pygmy filefish from ORA is my favorite little oddball. They grasp onto rocks with their mouth when sleeping, super silly. I’ve only owned one when I was a complete novice so while it’s is said to be reef safe, I wouldnt have known the difference then. 1 Quote Link to comment
