    Honestly, I have 3

    I loved my clowns. They hosted in some leather coral and were a blast.

    Seahorses were amazing. I can’t understand how they survive in the wild, but were great in my Living room.

    Rope fish were amazing in my cichlid tank. Would highly recommend

        It was okay. Needed a specific species only tank, and unheated. Grew lots of Marco algae for hitching posts and pod hides. Had lots and lots of pods in there. The difficult thing is getting them to eat frozen mysis. Make sure you see them eat frozen before you buy.

        They also are expensive and don’t live long. Definitely worth it though

          I’m a novice, I think it might be a very long time before I start doing complex stuff like that. My pygmy corys and Otto catfish refuse to eat anything other than their tank algae so far, haha. They refuse to even sample sinking foods or stuff like softened spinach, which they purportedly go crazy for.
