What fish gets recommended too often?

[Gumbies R Us]

As reef keepers, we love sharing with others what fish they should try in their tank. Maybe it is a fish we love in our tank, or one we think would go great with the reefers' current stock. However, is there one fish that gets recommended too much, maybe for the wrong reason? Let's discuss the fish that gets recommended too often!

At most lfs it seems to be tangs. I cant understand how people end up with tangs in a 30 gallon constantly.

Clowns, at least in medium to large tanks. I think they are brilliant in smaller tanks.

Royal Gramma... i really held off on getting one. They were not in my original stock list.

Then my sister kept nagging that i need one of those bright purple and yellow fish.. She doesn't even live with me and now has a fish in my tank named Corky.

Other than the affirmation clown Fish. I would agree with the tang statement. While they do clean and are good grazers they are very territorial, and can be bullies!

I think most of this is from lack of space.... or trying to have a purple :o, which I want so very badly, but just can't take the risk.
