I got over 100 fish(estimate) not counting fry. Only 3 have names

My Silver arowana is known as "Baby Huey" and my wife named 2 of the clown loaches "Ben & Jerry" She neglected to name the additional two CLs I got, so there known as the "new guys"
 
I keep my all my fishes names next to them in my sig. The Electric Blue is named Hendrix because he's actually purple.. a really trippy purple.. but he does appear extremely blue, his personality doesn't fit Jimi's but I'm sure no one does. I named my Senegal Bichir Tical because I have a Mayan temple in there and Tikal was the Mayans stronghold and Tical was Method Man's first album, and also his slang for bud. :D My Green Terror's name is Marley which fits him because as of right now he just goes with the flow and is always happy and inquisitive. My Dojo Loach is named Dre because it seems like he only comes out every 7 years haha. My two CAE's are named Sacco and Vanzetti after the infamous duo from history. They got those names because they like the real Sacco and Vanzetti are anarchists and don't believe there should be a hierarchy and they're the most active things in my tank by far and away. All over the place.. all the time.
 
Wife and kids generally do... never had a Frank however:grinno: Mustard, Cotton,BadAzz, Dude, CerealKiller, Sissy to name a few.
 
Jardini- Hennessey(If Cognac was irridescent that would be the color of my Aro)
Gold Severum- Lucky(The other two failed to acclimate to tank)
Green Severum- Punky(Becouse of his hair cut)
Blue Dempsey- Blue
Cloan Loaches-Frik and Frat
 
Hi, Yes i name my fish but only the bigger ones, ive got 3 Oscars and there called Cheanna, Neptune and Lilly and ive got a hybred cat called Big Red
 
We name most of our fish after Rappers for some reason. We have most of the Wu-Tang clan, Shug Knight, Bubba Sparks etc...

then the two Caribe are Bebop and Rocksteady from Ninja Turtles, I named my Endi Super Croc, in honor of steve irwins search for the super croc

It's more fun if they have names... except when they eat each other... Super Croc ate Inspectah Duck(a spotted shovelnose) and it was sad.
 
Well, after asking my wife to come up with three names for my three micropeltes she said one day "After you feed the cat is it not time for you to go upstairs and feed the nutters." I thought she was dissing my micros but she said she actually likes them now, so the name has stuck. I would much have preferred individual names but I have "The Nutters"....:)
