How could you dislike bichirs…
stay away from me


Gars are pretty boring to me as wellI used to agree about polys but my large ornate acts more like a gar, always mid water
They are straight up d***s. I have kept yoyos, skunks and candy striped. The candy was solo for a while and only hid. Once I added a yoyo the candy was pestered nonstop. I tried adding a few more yoyos and they wouldn't leave each other alone. I lost a couple to suicide. They wouldn't leave the other fish alone either. Just plain old d***heads.From pure curiosity, what is it about most loaches that makes you dislike them? I don't have any issues with others disliking loaches, but as a loachaholic I have a difficult time seeing what someone might not like.
You've seen betta antuta? If normal bettas are your favorite, there's a good chance betta antuta will take the number one spot.I like bettas. Maybe not my favorite, but will always have a special place in my heart. Solid second best labyrinth fish, best legal one imo.
I also like giant gouramis, just like a small one but more interactive, more aggressive (which only makes it more interactive and intelligent), and bigger (makes for much more of a centerpiece fish). Plus they are cute in an ugly sort of way.
I agree with Dats and most Gar but my tropical is less of a log then others I've seen.Gars are pretty boring to me as wellDon't get me started on Dats....

I love khuli loaches though they are super cool.
Skunks weren’t as bad for me as I’ve read, but definitely more feisty and a good choice for semi aggressive to aggressive fish.I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with yoyos and zebras. They're usually very peaceful and active in groups of 6 or more.
Can't speak for skunk loaches though, I have no experence with them and they are said to be aggressive.
I agree with you that kuhlis are great.
I love the macrostoma, and really any wild betta!You've seen betta antuta? If normal bettas are your favorite, there's a good chance betta antuta will take the number one spot.
If that fails, check out betta macrostoma, betta channoides, betta rubra, and betta foerschi.
Agree on dats. They look nice sure, but what’s the appeal?Gars are pretty boring to me as wellDon't get me started on Dats....
Not if your using them as dithers for a baby female dovii... they worked great, until they didn't. And that was when she was still like 3 inches.Giant danios. They just won't die!Best tank breakeriners until they terrorize everything afterwards.
