Fish you dislike.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
pink kissing gouramies. common pleco when get big, mine dropped like 20' of poop a day. i also think that loaches are terribly ugly, and dats. never kept them, they might be cool, but ill never know. love oscars. too much personality not to like em, they are messy as h**l . just like puppy dogs. a friend of mine has 6 or 7 HUGE goldfish in his 125 15" or more. all day they are sucking up rocks and spitting them out not too exciting.
 
I don't care for cichlids... I don't know why. I think it's because they look a lot like a crazy ocean fish that scared the crap out of me when I was swimming in th ocean for the first time.

And Bala sharks. They are nothing but trouble, fat and stupid. One of mine actually killed itself hitting his head on the top of the tank. I wen't through 5 before I decided that they were not worth it. I finally gave the last one away around Christmas.

And feeder minos. What a jerk fish that is. I really don't like them, the only thing that they are good for is cycling tanks and killing your favorite fish.

My favorites, I am enamored with my Ornate birchir, I have 3 now, and 3 palmas, and my two aros. I also am in love with my archers and BGK.
 
According to me some fishes are not beautiful in colours. Blood Parrots and Big hump headed fish are not liked by me because I do not like their looking. Gold fish is my favourite because It is awesome in look. I like It's eyes and figs.
 
My #1. most hated fish is Peacock Bass. I also hold successful PBass keepers in utter disdain! I have tried around a half a dozen or more times to keep these fish and have failed to ever have one reach the three inch mark. I am ecstatic when the juvenile Pbass just Fing die in my tanks without wiping the entire freaking tank out from external parasites. I ALWAYS do a minimum of two week quarantine on new fish before adding them to established fishtanks. To date, these are the only fish that have passed a two week Q.T. with flying colors and killed every fish in the next established tank they are moved to (OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!!)
Oh haw I do so envy (hate) you successful PBass keeper creeps!

#2 Painted/ Died fish
#3 Man made Hybrids
#4 Plecos
 
way to dig up a thread from 2006....... wow lol
 
reported, he is a thread digger. look at all his (4) posts
 
Guess if it's here again might as well post on it again, the fish i was the most disappointed in keeping were africans, maybe it was just my experience but they had little to no personality and did virtually nothing but beg for food, waste of an investment IMO. Also dislike livebearers, most tetras, I HATE bala sharks and tinfoil barbs, not really a goldfish guy, and i really don't understand the clown loach hype.

fish i really enjoy keeping are polypterus, sa/ca cichlids, and flowerhorn cichlids
