We can put many fish into our tanks, from basic ocellaris clowns to yellow tangs; there is a fish for everyone. However, there are also a lot of overlooked fish in the hobby that not many people talk about keeping. I want to know what fish you like that, not many people talk about or feel get overlooked by the more common fish.

Chalk Bass! I had one when I started... he was my first ever casualty... If I ever get a second tank/upgrade, he will be one of the new occupants.
They look like typical "fish" like a normal largemouth/smallmouth, but their colors are awesome!

I have always thought jack knives are unique! How hard are they to care for?
Apparently fairly difficult to get eating , this guy is literally biting on the pipette before the food comes out though ! Had to up my feeding to keep him happy
