I'd rather hear the names everyone's spouses call them when they come walking in with a new $150 fish in a clear bag

I love that you have a clownfish named Tang. If you ever get a Tang, you should name it Bozo.

Our agreement - you bring home a fish, I get to name it. If i bring home a fish, you get to name it. But usually we shop together or at least know ahead of time what is coming home before the fact.

the Yellow Watchman Goby is Steve.

Well I'm completely done stocking fish, except maybe two more azure damsels and I'm 90% done on corals after my planned tour of picking up purchased frags from local club members tomorrow. So far everything livestock wise has been financed from selling a single rifle. I love when Dems win, in some ways. Now I did get some questions during the equipment setup and rock buying phase.

Names the kids have chosen
Sharpie the Yellow Tang
Brownie the Tomini
Nemo the Nemo fish
Sarah the other Nemo fish
Happy the azure damsel
Banana the lemon merengue wrasse
No name on the two yellow watchman gobies. Guess they hide to much.

RIP Bluey the Yellowtail Damsel due to mouth fungus.

I only have one fish right now, a royal gramma named Tiger, and I plan to name one of my other fish that I’ll get Medusa. I need some more ideas which im about to steal from this thread… thanks guys :)
Just name them after things, characters, songs, people, etc. that you like.

My fish are named after characters from Hannibal (Bedelia du Maurier), LotR (Boromir), a couple drag queens (Bimini Bon Boulash and Ginny Lemon), a band (Shannon and the Clams), and Buhtricia is from this lady I used to work with named Patricia who had this really bad cold, and every time she answered the phone she’d say ‘thith ith Buhtricia’ (it was so stupid and made me laugh, and the shrimp kind of reminds me of her the way it’s always up in everyone’s business and is really passive aggressive, tho itth Buhtricia!).

Oh, and I’m not proud of this, but we had a royal gramma named “Osama bin gramma” because he hid in a cave a lot.
Ok, this one made me smile. I guess I shouldn't have.
