The shyest aquarium fish

[Fishfreak2009]

Scooped up a yellow brotulid female at my LFS today to go in with my seahorses. Hoping I can find a male soon. I'll try and get a quick video of her in the bag before I release her into the tank and probably never see her again.

For me - Marine betta
Followed by firefish goby

This fish reminds me of a banana yellow black ghost knifefish with the way it moves the fins.

Quick poor quality video video in bag:



And a quick low quaility pic in the bag:

For me currently it’s my trio of these guys (Pseudocheilinops ataenia).

Out of all the fish I’ve ever owned it was this guy, a Discrodipinna griessingeri.

 

[Fishfreak2009]

Well, she's definitely one of the coolest fish I've ever kept.

For me its my Liopropoma rubre wish i could catch it and put it in my fluval it doesn't like the big fish think it would do better on its own

I'm going to be the idiot to ask why this big butt brain coral did not survive and why small gsp is placed on it , great fish I assume :)

Not an idiot at all! I actually got that skeleton in a bucket of dry rock in a trade. I decided to use it to grow a GSP colony on, so glued a piece on here. It doesn't grow anywhere nearly as fast in 70 degree water though

Was firefish when they were in my bigger tank with many occupants and I eventually lost them. Now that I placed 2 new one in a peaceful smaller setting with pajama cardinal and scissortail gobies, they are constantly out, and eat a lot.
In my big tank, surprisingly, my hippo tang, I have for 3 years is not really shy, but a scary cat. He goes and hide as soon as he hears or see something though he is the second largest fish in the tank.

50G

50G

This makes sense, they’re usually secretive in anything over a 20G cube. Mine was in a max nano and I saw him very frequently.

I'd also second the marine betta. Shy, very peaceful - and not aggressive at all when it comes to feeding.
