Hardiest Fish?

[chauwall]

What would you say is the hardiest, easiest, no kill guarantee fish (other than a damsel) that you would put in a reef tank?

For me, I think yellow tangs.

 

[ralph atl]

also, royal gramma, false percs, maybe some gobi's.

I wouldn't put any Tang on that list. Chromis and tank raised clowns would be my guess.

 

[derek_s]

Many eels are really tough too. What else can jump out of a tank and lay there for hours till you get home and throw it back in?

Technically a fish? Dunno.

 

[kirru]

my fire fish i would consider hardy, dragon goby, wheeler watchman too.

Not only are they mean they can pull themselves up out of water and walk across land.

They are reproducing in parts of the country in alarming numbers and wiping out sport fish.

This thing will chew your leg off lol.

 

[thedeper]

Yup, they are wiping out a lot of the bass population in different parts of the U.S (along with other species) and they aren't much that can kill them.

And from what I have seen/heard from angler's they are incredibly hard to fish for.

Will def make you think before hopping in the water hah

I REPEAT GRAPHIC

Don't bash me for posting as I think I made it very clear that this is GRAPHIC and I do not condone it in the least little bit, but just shows some of the power and ferocity of these guys.

Sailfail Tangs are tanks man. The will outlive roaches in a nuclear winter!

 

[nickskains]

My sailfin got his butt kicked by a yellow tang.

 

[thanh386]

[smoothie]

What about a six or four lined wrasse?

 

[crew]

haha no, even you could keep a clarion in your tank.. They are expensive because you can only import so many per year
