View Full Version : Least Favorite Fish

Since we have a most prized fish thread, i think its only natural to make a list
about fish that we like the least.

Tiger Barbs are on the top ten. My neighbor used to have a big tank with nothing
but tiger barbs. I think it traumatized me somewhat :mad:

I also dont care for Plecos and Oscars with long fancy tails.

Lastly, dont like any fish that is dyed.

Ill add to the list when i think of something else. Its really hard... i love all fish in general.

I dislike Oscars, Bala Sharks, Goldfish (basically all of them), and Parrot Cichlid (that hybrid).. those are the ones that came to mind first.

Blood parrots, fancy goldfish. nothing else out there comes close.

I've had the honor of watching BOTH types of fish get slain in my tanks, though :cool:

200g tank with a 9" Texas cichlid, and my dad went out and follishly bought a 2" $20 yellow-dyed parrot. The texas said "Oh, volleyball!". My dad cursed and snarled, I applauded and told him never to go near my ****ing tanks ever again.

200g tank with various 1"-4" juvenile cichlids, both americans and africans. I throw in a $5 wal-mart oranda goldfish. That fat ugly goldfish got torn apart in a most spectacular fashion within just 20 minutes. And then, I took the goldfish's shredded remains back to wal-mart and got a refund. I actually made a very-detailed thread on this issue on another forum, ill get around to looking for it when I get a chance.

you disgust me
and you need to grow up, you've already whined and cried about your displeasure at seeing fish get killed, and you've already made a hypocrite out of yourself by admitting that you catch fish yourself, which as anyone can point out is harmful to the fish being caught, even if the fish is released.

now you need to either accept things as they are and move on, or get the **** out of here and find a different forum to post on

I respect men discussing their opinions, but I don't respect 14-yr-old boys that are trying to insult other people.

they are only a year old and only get out a couple of hours each day. They torment my cat until he gets pissed enough tochase them back to their pen when I lock them back in. They think goldfish are great toys, gartersnakes too. I would not trust them near ANYTHING smaller than they are.

My huge albino ferret some how snuck into the guinea pig cage while we where out...

we came home and found him digging and scratching his way into the gunieas skull...

brains and blood EVERYWHERE...

Mr.Albinos entire head was soaked in blood...

and the guniea was squealing like crazy...

I took the guniea to the vet and had him put down... :(

It was a disgusting mess to clean up.

all cyprinids are that way. They are naturally stupid fish. I would have listed cyprinids on this thread, if it werent for the fact that blood parrots are around.

My same experience. :redface:

Personally, I would probably have to do a totally aquascaped "Amazon" bio-tope tank setup, w/ a good-sized shoal of P's (Pygos) to enjoy keeping Pirahnas. :headbang2: With that 'visual' in mind, is what gives me a totally different perspective of 'P' keeping. :idea: Perhaps, someday i will?!! :grinyes:

It's all that dumb "Media hype" about P's being "savage beasts"... totally exaggerated, and outta hand! :uhoh:

Like in that STUPID video/documentary, "Wolves In The Water"...when that one Old President dude went to the Amazon and fed the pirahnas "Cow Drumsticks" (or whatever they were?) TOTALLY BLew it OUT of PROPORTION, w/ that speech he said?!! :screwy: STUPID people Beleive it too!!

But, yeah,,, P's, especially @t young ages... merely just scared skittish tetras w/ some sharp chompers... they don't even know what they're capable of doing when their young?!! :shakehead But they still cool "Monster" fishes tho!

Any dedicated fish hobbyist has had to keep P's, at least once at one time?!!

Me, personally have kept P's 3 times in the past! :thumbsup: Damn fish, all ate each other!! :wall: Lost 30+ reds in about a week 1/2!

I agree dyeing fish is just wrong. I mean if you can't enjoy a fish's natural beauty you just shouldn't keep them. Not only that but the dyeing process decreases thier life expectancy by a long time. So sad.

And the Red plated/black spots Fl. Horns aren't the only type of Fl. Horn. Syns. and Texas look quite nice too.....growin a few of those out even. She(Syns.) is a whore and will breed w/anything. :thumbsup: I'm sure the other guys can agree w/this. You can name some hybrids you don't like but not the whole lot!

I just ment to say that making fish breed with eatchother in a way that would not occour in the wild, is in my opinion not correct, especcially the kinds witch have problems living. These fish are "made" in a way that they can't swim properly and sometimes can not even eat normal! I only dislike that kind of fish, like some sort of goldfish and blood parrots ( :cry: )

Ik just think that the nature has provided us with enough beautiful fish, and that we don't need to cross breed. :D

That's just my opinion and my answere on the thread question. :22_yikes:

I don't! This is just a healthy sort of discussion but i didn't ment to hurt you, ha ha.

BTW i ment stuff like this:

http://minutillo.com/steve/weblog/images/tk-1.jpg

the comment from the site:
Their weird glowing green color makes them look like they've been swimming in a nuclear plant's spent fuel pond.

But the zebra fish on sale in Taipei shops have an even stranger background: They're the latest in genetically modified fish, and their bodies contain DNA from jellyfish, which makes them shimmer in the dark.

Shopkeepers call them “Night Pearls.” Some have nicknamed them “Frankenfish.” Their makers at the Taipei-based Taikong Corp. use the less catchy name of “TK-1″ and say they are the world's first genetically engineered fluorescent fish.

Just sick right? > has to be forbidden

i hate sev's.
i was given loads free plus some other crappy fish and i stuck them in my main tank when i had my green aro,gar and rays etc.
the big fish eat most of them except the sev's which stayed behind my filter for ages so when i set up another 18 tanks i used them to cycle the tanks.
there still alive and to date had killed some of my fish i lost a 7'' juruence and a 4'' wild silver aro to the little twats as they were the only fish i could house them with they bullied them to death in one night.
i have been using some as dithers for my p-bass and my apurensis eat one of the sev's the other day.
they take a lot of crap i will give them that but i have another 20 or so tanks to set up so i need them for a bit anyway.
they serve there purpose.

Wow, talk about bringing up an old topic. I actually read the entire thing though.

I used to dislike various kinds of fish...livebearers, goldfish, hybrids but now I pretty much like them all. I cannot rember who said it but a true fishkeeper really does appreciate all the different fishes for what makes them unique.

I remember someone knocking cyprinids...HOW DARE YOU!!!! Cyprinids are one of the most successfull familys of fishes in the world with more species under their belt than any other fish family. Sure, many of them are the bottom of the food chains, surely not monsters but for that reason we should all love them, they feed the predators you keep, both in and out of the wild. Show some respect.

a dojo got stuck in my box tube. i blowwed on the tube, and the dang thing goes up into the air, smacks the ceiling, and down the drainLOL:ROFL: :ROFL: . I fallow you on the kulis, like worms, i view the american eel as an overgrown khuli, although, i like my dojos.

My list- pacu, died and altered fish(i don't mean hybrids), small; unintersting tetra....
Even If these are your least favorate, if you were offered one free, would you still not take it??:confused:

:D anything that bashes tankmates of an irregular size. Plecos. Cats. and large ugly chichlids.



Personally i have to say goldfish look fine in ponds. They were never tank fish. to begin with i think....

Sure we should enjoy fish for their beauty. But i find no beauty in some :P look at thrash mollies...

I have to say, I don't much care for the selective bred mollys with odd colors or ballon shapes. The same goes with other livebearers. A wild sailfin molly though is an awsome little fish to behold.

I don't think you can really say you hate all catfish, there is over 3000 species. There should be one catfish if you search that you will like. If not then you are not trying. I like fish that get huge, anything less than 14" adult size is just a snack for my fish. I think all fish have their own special qualities, but some fish are predators, and some fish are prey. I keep them both, but the predators allways come out on top. I love plecos cause they do some weird things sometimes, and my catfish loves to pick them up on his nose and move them around the pond. As for those glowing fish, they would make awesome feeders if they were to give my fish special powers! Think about it, they have X-MEN, now we can have X-FISH!!!!!

( 1 inch per gallon my ass, that means a 55 in fish can be in a 55 gallon tank right? I really hate those people!)

Catfish
Tinfoil Barbs

I’m not a big fan of neon’s, I can respect them for their cool color and their group think, but for some reason I’m just not that drawn to them. That said.... I actually have a few that my mom requested for Mothers day. And I must say that my banjo cat is the most boring fish that I have ever owned, you can barely tell he is alive. And I would like to defend mollies, I like them and I have a group that came from a single mommy molly that are black with silver gills, they look really cool and are super friendly.

My mollys nibble my fingers CONSTANTLY whenever Ifeed them, they will bite the fingers more than the food. They also nibble my arm hairs while I clean the tank, so do my goldfish.

I dont understand why you guys hate goldfish so much. They are the higher lesser of four evils (1-Dyeing, 2-Genetic Modifiying, 3-Unnatural Hybridizing, 4-Selective Breeding).

If you arent interested in bulging eyes or weird headgrowths, The Shubunkin(Calico)/Common(Metallic)Goldfish is certainly your kind of fish, being able to live for 20 years+ with good health, as well as being pond fish. Howeer, they require 20 gallons, EACH.

Blood parrots, fancy goldfish. nothing else out there comes close.

I've had the honor of watching BOTH types of fish get slain in my tanks, though :cool:

200g tank with a 9" Texas cichlid, and my dad went out and follishly bought a 2" $20 yellow-dyed parrot. The texas said "Oh, volleyball!". My dad cursed and snarled, I applauded and told him never to go near my ****ing tanks ever again.

200g tank with various 1"-4" juvenile cichlids, both americans and africans. I throw in a $5 wal-mart oranda goldfish. That fat ugly goldfish got torn apart in a most spectacular fashion within just 20 minutes. And then, I took the goldfish's shredded remains back to wal-mart and got a refund. I actually made a very-detailed thread on this issue on another forum, ill get around to looking for it when I get a chance.

I agree with you. I don't understand why people on this forum hate goldfish. They are totally awesome, hardy, and they have great personalities. One of mine started out orange and black, then orange, and now it's pure white!

bubble eye goldfish, those goldfish with the heads that make them look like they have their brains coming out of their head, and other goldies like that. piranhas are probably my next least favourite. boring, skittish, personality-less, and little colour. whats to like?:thumbsdow

dyed fish also discust me, but i hate the other 2 more.
