How many people sold particular fish due to boredom,change or it wasn't suitable for their current setup to just see themselves buying that same fish again later down the road. I have been guilty many a time and here are just some of those fish...

Lenticulata pikes
Black arowanas
Piranha
Oscars
Armatus
Clown loaches
Plecos
Tigrinus
Peacock bass
Frontosa

The list is longer but I would be here forever as I have been in the hobby for a long time so lets see your lists!
What do you seem to keep buying even though you had them in the past?
 
I have done this with two fish,my old brokopondo cichla-sold it and bought it back,and an odoe which I have sold and bought back a few times.

i had my suncat and male festae back off my friend when he went marine, i gave them to him then he gave them back... the suncat is now around 12 inches and one of my favourite fish. The male festae was one of two, then i lost mine and he was a good backup once my mate went over to the dark side!-)
 
I have w an earth eater I just got back two days ago also a convict I didn't want back but friend was shutting down tank. Also female salvini. Not the same one. I gave one away a few months ago and then bought a new one a week ago.
