What do you think the Best Looking Reef Fish is?

[Circa]

My vote goes to the powder blue tang. And a close second would be the blue hippo tang.

But nothing beats the looks of a powder blue....

On my plate, Grouper. I like Mahi Mahi best but not a reefer.

In a tank I would have to say Hippo but I have decided against them for now.

Koran Angels seem very pretty, but I must admit I've never seen one in real life - only in photos.

Achilles Tang.
Of course one would be too large for my 55gal tank, darn it

Gotta disagree, IMO it's the Squarebox Anthias

I vote hippo tang it is soooooo sexy. That fish is very attractive and its available everywhere and its not as evil as my other fish always trying to hurt each other!!

I would have to say the hippo as well. Mine is just beautiful. He is really small at only 1.25 inch. Had him/her since it was 3/4 of an inch. Eats like a pig. Gorgeous colors.

Hey Dave hows it going? Haven't seen you around for a while.

I will have to cast my vote for the Red Sea Regal Angel.

Howdy,

My personal favorite is the royal gramma. You just can't beat a cardinal and gold fish!

clownfish

Tremelle this is for reef only fish. Unless that is a reef fish... Didn't think it was though.

Hello,I would have to go with the red sea regal angel.

 

[Dragonlady]

I think the emperor angelfish is the best looking reef fish, and has been doing great in my reef tank!

 

[pathos]

Macropharyngodon meleagris

The Majestic Angel is a sensational looking fish.

The Moorish Idol is another but not entirely reef-safe (mine picks at some types of LPS corals.

Others worthy of mention:
Leopard Wrasse ( male colouration)
Royal Gramma
Flame Angel
Mandarin fish

Yea, I think this is misleading... Let's qualify this... Best-looking REEF-SAFE fish. I do not feel that any anglefishes should be included because as I understand it, they are hit-and-miss in the tank.

I've never seen a Squarebox Anthias. Is this fish reef-safe? Rare? Let's hear more!

 

[Circa]

Sounds good Mabu, that was my original intention never the less.

 

[tanzy]

Sunburst Anthias!!! Beautiful colours!

 

[Sashimi]

Definately Dragonet!
