    When you feed your tank in the morning what fish comes up to you first?

    There's always one or two fish that tend to hover around the glass begging for food no matter what time of the day. For me it's my long nosed hawkfish (Mr. Snoodler), he's super smart and always knows when I'm carrying the food container. The other one that does the same is my yellow pyramid...

    How long do you wait before naming your fish?

    I know not everybody names their fish, especially when they first get them as there was always a risk of losing something. Once you name an animal you tend to be more fond of it as well so losing them after naming them can be harder to deal with. For me with fish specifically I do a two to three...

    Least favorite fish species and why?

    Do you have a specific species of fish that you try to avoid putting in your tank, or are just not a fan of altogether? For me its mainly damsels just due to their aggression.

    If you could only keep one fish species, what would it be?

    If you were limited to keeping a single species of fish (Anthias, angelfish, clownfish etc.) which would it be and why? For me I would go with Gobies, you get a lot of different colors, body types, and size range for them so keeping multiple in a tank would be okay if done right.

One way is by using sonic (drumming) muscles which contract rapidly against their swim bladder, or grinding their teeth together to produce...

    Do your fish recognize you?

    Keeping fish for a long time, especially ones with a lot of personality always gets me thinking about if they would recognize me over another person. I do feel as though they would since I am the one that feeds them mainly. But I definitely have a few that would beg for food from anyone who...

    That one fish who is a major pest but 100% can't be parted with!

    I think we all have at least one. A fish that is so beloved that if anything happened to them, the whole tank would feel empty. At the same time though... That fish is a major pain in the rear end and it's shenanigans can be a major headache sometimes. This is mine: His name is Bilbo and...
