What is the worst fish ever?

Tod the California Halibut.

Now I have to know more about tod

I’d assume the story ends with some horseradish and a slice of lemon

You don’t want to know. He’s a worse despot than any human ever. What he did and continues to do is simply unimaginable.

(which is why I'm not trying to imagine it)

Brown Tang. Very aggressive!!

 

[Balthazar]

Lol my maroons never once bit or attacked me. On the other hand I had a regular clown jump out of the tank to bite me in the forehead. I had clownfish teeth marks on my head. Little demon. She was the worst fish Ive had!!!

Same experience here.

6 line wrasse. Worst fish I’ve had so far. Pretty and active. But a bully and so hard to catch. (Still trying to catch it)

 

[Balthazar]

Jewel Damsel.
Had to make a soda bottle trap to catch him. Then off to the sump he went, followed by a trip to the lfs.

Clownfish.
My solo clown started unexpectedly (after quite a bit of time with no issues):
- being a bunghole to my tailspot blenny
- relentlessly biting the tentacles off of my duncan coral

Queen Trigger....beautiful fish but killed everything in my tank. The LFS said; "Well, now you have a display aquarium for a Queen Trigger."

I had a lunar wrasse that was by far the worst fish I’ve ever had. I’ve had aggressive fish but he was horrible. I tried adding other fish to the tank and he would eat them. I even tried adding other aggressive fish that were about the same size as him and he would still kill and eat them. The only other thing I was able to keep in the tank was a 2 foot long eel, and the wrasse tried attacking it but the eel stood his ground. The only positive thing I can say is that he didn’t attack me when I had my hands in the tank.
They’re absolutely beautiful fish l, but I will never get another one.

I was looking at one of the orange stripes for my tank, I want a bristletooth. It was between that one, a white tail, or a tomini

I had a white tail i sold when I moved. It was territorial when another bristletooth was added. A beautiful fish. I currently have a tomi and the orange striped chased around the tomi but now they leave him alone. The tomi sometimes fights the mirror. Love the orange tail. He's adjusting well. The tomi was mainly getting chased by the gold rim. The orange striped gets somewhat large and picks with everybody occasionally.

Brown Tang. Very aggressive!!

I had to trade my brown tang into the lfs when I got the gold rim. He tried to kill my new gold rim!

 

[Jekyl]

Clowns. Awful little things.

 

[voelter76]

I’d have to go with my stupid six line wrasse. He’s an absolute SOB!!!! Also remember that up there has to be a domino damsel that I had years ago. When I finally decided to evict him I basically had to dismantle the entire reef in my 70g to catch him!

Tomato clowns

 

[PizzaIan339]

My male clown is a gem but the female bullies everything in the tank, the male, the emerald crab, the zoas, she attacks my fingers and I saw her charge at the rock 3 days ago...

 

[Litebrite]

I had a Rock Beauty Angel that harassed every fish in a 350 gallon tank. I had to catch it and trade it back to LFS. I have never seen such an aggressive fish in my 16 years of the hobby.

 

[BryanM]

weird, I have a 6line and he just meanders around, doesn't bug anyone, and seems very casual.

That said, I did make sure to buy a small one to try and prevent issues. Maybe when he gets larger I will come to agree with many here :)

Tomato clowns

I've heard tomatoes can be aggressive; that is why I never wanted them.

I love clownfish.... but the maroon ones seem to be spawns of the devil. They attack humans!!!

We have a Darwin clownfish in our lab that bites everyone. We call her “Emo Nemo”
They are little rascals
