goldenswimmers Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Ha ha..this will get some offside but hey I know alot of people dont dig goldfish so each to their own.. I'm confessin.. I dont dig catfish!! ...Is it just me...do others find these guys "UN"interesting..I don't care if there is tons of variety or if some are rare...and hey I know each to their own..but I dig a fish that swims around the tank...catfish look like alien tanks that either dont move on the bottom or hang upside down or just cruise around the bottom lookin brain dead... ha ha yee ha....lookin foward to some feedback... can spare some room for a tiger shovel nose;)(yeah I know there not allowed so like I said catfish suck!) or a red tail....but mainly cause these guys are units and have a bit of a different look to them.... Hit me with some examples of some sexy catfish that move hey if you want to defend these suckers...not a little alien cockroach lookin thing that sits on the bottom and has a different "number" because it has some dots or lines going a different way...nerd fish...ha ha ....

red demon Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 OK, I'll go with this .... I don't like Africans (especially Malawi), I can tolerate some shell dweller Tangyanikans. I can't help much with interesting catfish as ..... I'm not a huge fan of Bristlenose type catties either ... Corydoras are my fav Unfortunately all the "sheep" will probably follow on with "I don't like goldfish" ....*yawn* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trk18 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Lol mate stir up a hornets nest ! My self guppies & plattys are a waste of tank space if you ask me ! Good for feeders Can't go past americans, Africans. & exotics Goldfish get a bad wrap but they were my first fish & I'm guessing alot of peeps first. Bought my daughter a small tank for her room & she picked goldfish over guppies etc has taste Like her dad . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegan013 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I dont like africans, one of he Only things besides marine I havent kept and its staying that way. I have 4 Eel tail catfish and there the most active fish I keep, Will post a video later to show.. And I also love the power and strength from the bigger natives, whether there swimming or feeding.

pk333 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Blood parrots, Flowerhorns, anything mutant (including many of the "fancy" Goldfish) I find abhorrent. But I have a particular dislike for clipped, dyed and tattooed fish. To deliberately mutilate a fish for "aesthetic" reasons is animal cruelty.

mq_camo Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Cats, africans, all the little tropical fish and boring Americans (sevs etc) bore the hell out of me. Give me a solid umbee, dovii or mangrove jack any day. I like a fish with attitude.

DeadFishFloating Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 The most boring catfish in the world is the bronze cory, corydoras aneus. but.... it is hardy, full of personality, harmless and a useful scavenger. Hence why with a bit of linebreeding we now have the goldstripe.... and more importantly the ALBINO goldstripe. These pictures are not mine. But perhaps I shall have to get some. Heck I will even try and get a baby black ranchu in the same frame. You will come over to the dark side goldenswimmer. It has been written and so shall it be!

luckyfish Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I don't like plecos, I don't mind bristlenose (though I am selling all my stock to make room for corys lol) but plecos to me look too bulky and way too messy and I prefer little guys, like the cute winking corys I love goldfish, yeah sure they can messy and boring sometimes but they're easy to full in love with, I've had Jazz my large female comet for over 2 years and I will never ever part with her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
