Goldfish are like a dumb but nice friend .. you grow attached to them and every now and then they do something that makes you question if you are the stupid one

I don't hate any fish. There are many I will never own, but that is it.
I really don't get why people hate a fish because it's aggressive. If you know it's an aggressive species to begin with, why get it in the first place?

Plecos. It doesn't matter what species you get, they're all full of crap.
sooo true. I have a 15" pleco that sits on the back of the tank most of the time, and comes out right after I clean the white sand and leaves his mark all over the place, making it look like I've neglected my tank for weeks. this is the tank not even five minutes after being cleaned

I've basically given up on cleaning the sand for that reason. I'll clean it once every 2-3 weeks. The cichlids stir it up between cleanings, so the pleco's crap isn't too bad of an eye sore.

unfortunately for me, the fish that stirs the sand up the most is my pleco. he lives the life, he probably doesn't realize it though. he lives in a 240 with a senegal bichir, and a clown knife fish. I've recently entertained the idea of a catfish one that maxs out around the 12" mark. walzed through the lfs and they had a Raphael cat that was about 6-7" but they wanted 35$ for it. so I'm still looking

there was one fish I had that I named Satan. he was a hoplias malabaricus. he jumped out of the tank to bite the dog, who was trying to bite him through the glass. I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't have it on video, unfortunately the video was on my desktop computer. when I was moving the movers didn't disconnect the keg or co2 from my kegerator and hit the tap in the truck that was of course right next to my computer. lost a lot of family photos on that one screw up. I wish I could show you guys the video

1st question: What is the baddest fish I can put in blah blah tank.
2nd question: What can I put with it?
3rd question: What happened, it killed all my fish?
conclusion: That fish is evil!

Lol! One of my favorite fish, but that description is funny as hell and made me think of this.
