So hard to pick just one. I love my Whitetail bristletooth tang, Vrolik's wrasse and pyramid butterflies but if I had to pick one it would be the tang.

I have been looking at the Pyramid Butterfiles.......how reef safe are they? Based on what I have read, they can be kept in reefs but I have had bad luck with fish that are labeled reef safe fish lol.

I love the simple peaceful reef safe fish. My Striped Blennie has a lot of character and I am in love with him/her. He is like a cute puppy always responding to me when I approach the tank. Also love my pretty Bangaii pair. BTW all of these fish are captive bred….

Acanthurus nigricans (Whitecheek Surgeonfish) has always drawn my attention. I've got its close relative, Acanthurus japonicus (Powder Brown), until I can find the perfect one. [emoji173]️[emoji173]️

I have three and 2 of the three are model citizens but one nips at my two gorgonians. The don't look to be damaged but are staying closed more than usual. None of them bother anything else (which includes SPS, lobos, zoas, duncans, chalices, euphyllia,acans, trumpet coral and cyphastrea)

I cant really pick 1 favorite in my tank. There's too many that I like. But some of my favorites are my fuzzy dwarf lion, snowflake eel, green mandarin, and my snowflake clown (he's a beast. he was one of the first fish i put in the tank and he's survived 2 tank wipeouts from when i had no idea what i was doing)
