Bubble Eye Goldfish:
Bubble eye (duh)
ID Shark:
Pygmyscale
Mole Crab:
Shelly
Triops:
Sparky (mine) Uno (my Dad's) Princess (my sister's)
Let's hear those names!
 
I have names for my cichlids, puffers, and my african brown knife fish. But my platy's and neon tetras and tiger barbs, I didn't give them names...simply too many.
 
I've tried to name fish, but I find it hard to come up with good names for them. And when I do, they just don't stick.
 
Silly me for naming my most dominant tiger loach, Theodore and clown loach, Basil.;)
 
I name my fish all the time. Especially the really personable ones.

I have
Parrot fish- Peaches
Betta 1- Astrapia
Betta 2- Moony
Betta 3- Alice
Dragon fish- Lithium
Born-deformed angel- Sharkfin

My old oscar (Rest in peace) name was "Oswald"

My very first fish was a betta and his name was "Burrito" lol
 
I have one named fish. My Senegalus . . . his name: Jormungandr (named after a sea serpent in Norse mythology) :D
 
Is the first time i name my fish, may be because i got them since babies, they are two polypterus senegalus: Nelson and Otto

lol MAKE SURE HE NEVER HAS TO WORK IN A RESTRAUNT. iMAGINE HIS NAME TAG:
Hi, my name is

Jormungandr
 
ive had all my fish as babies but it just doesnt seem right to name them. i dont even name my cat but call him kitty. it just seems more natural to refer to the fish by their names, like the big red devil, the red oscar, the catfish.
