I used to be into Africans back in the late 80's. These days they just don't excite me. Plus they went and changed all the names!

they are all the same to me. I used to keep them, but they just don't share the same personality or size that the SA do. I do like fronts though
 
I am not a fan of wolf fish, bichirs, rope fish, anything that looks like a snake. They creep me out.
 
Not really into rays, ATF, puffers, piranha, clown knife, and...asian aros :banher::banhim: Mind you these are probably all cool fish and I don't dislike them but I wouldn't go out of my way to keep them, or in most cases be willing to spend the cash to keep them.

I really dislike lots of man-made/hybrid type things...FHs, BPs, fancy goldfish like bubbleeye and lionhead, and cichlids with huge unnatural looking koks. I had a friend in college with a dog that had this tumor thing hanging from his nads that looked like a speedbag and it was just painful to look at...that's how I feel about these malformed goldfish and ginormous koks.

Oh and how can people not like gars??? Gars :headbang2

nothing wrong with not liking asian aros. They look great, but their main appeal is the fact that we can't have them I think. For actual form, I think silvers look much better
 
fish with koks and pacus

Yeah that's pretty much how I feel about them. I think truthfully blacks & silvers both look better, main appeal of an asian for me would be the more manageable size.
