Haven't found a gourami I don't like yet. Dwarf my current fav.
Always have a place for Angelfish.
Love Rams, great color and personality a joy to watch.
Getting a taste for Bettas since I accidently bought a male.
Want an all Rainbow tank some day.

Malawi cichlids hands down. I love my Zebras, Yellow, Johanni and Auratus, just to name a few.

Wow, that's a tough question...

I guess I'd say bettas. They're the first fish I ever kept, big variety of great colors and varieties, good personalities. Not long ago I got my first female betta, and just recently betta coccina.

I also love my CA/SA cichlids...again, good personalities and colors. Paradisefish and kuhlis would be close to the top as well.

Top of my fish-wish-list are an oscar or JD

My Black Lancer as it is a unusual fish and is also quite rare. I also like Keyhole Cichlids as they are just cool I think

My angels are probably my favorite fish ever. They're the first fish I ever kept. I think people get a little attached to the first kind of fish they keep.

My blue ram is starting to grow on me though, and I definitely love the tiger barbs.

I love cories, obviously.
I've also become very fond of bettas because of their personalities. Mine will eat out of my hand.

My all-time favorite fish have got to be the dojo loach!! Not the prettiest fish ever, but definitely have the most personality!

I'm gonna have to say my white-cheecked moray. He's awesome. A little shy, but he's been with me for a while and he's a great conversation peice, especially when he was in freshwater.

Argh, this is simply impossible. All right. I'm sure I'll second-guess this later (love that edit button!) but I'll go with ... nope, can't do it. Sorry.

Hmmmmm....Good question. Few months ago I would have easily said my Sengal Bichir but now I would have to say my Arowana. Not too many fish out there that I know of that actually enjoy being pet! Arowanas are super cool!

I would have to say (freshwater) would either be a species of polypterus or one of the stingrays.

N. Brichardi. They're absolutely stunning (at least to me) and have pretty intriguing behaviours. First time I saw a tank with brichardis I stopped and stared at them with my mouth agape until my mom came and made me move. That was in a display tank at Kew Gardens. With plants. I find it hard to believe I ever saw them with any plants let alone pretty happy-looking ones.

Odessa barbs are a close second. They're pretty fun little fish. And really nice to look at.
