what is your favorite fish species?

[sandtiger]

i agree ccichlids but ......now im getting into crenicichila

Those are cichlids.

Difficult to choose. As far as fishkeeping goes I prefer catfishes, New World cichlids and U.S. natives, particularly centrarchids (sunfishes)

Ya'll are all listing genus'. A species is a paticular fish in a genus. For example Parachromis Managuense-Parachromis is the genus-Managuense is the species.

I have a hard enough time narrowing it down to orders and families let alone single species. To make you happy though I will say the rock bass is one of my favorite fishes. I like how they look, they are a blast to fish for, make great aquarium specimens. An all around great fish.
