Kat_Rigel Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 If you had unlimited space, money, and time to maintain, what would your dream fish be? I know Cory would love a Fly River Turtle (and shout out to him for making sure it's done ethically and legally.) Right now, my goals are pretty doable; I would love either a Saddled or Delhezi Bichir and an Oscar. But as I'm in a 3rd floor, 1 bedroom apartment, that's not realistic at the moment. What about everyone else? (Turtles, frogs, and other aquatic life welcome!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADMWNDSR83 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I'd love to have a saltwater biome tank with inshore wreck fish from the mid-Atlantic, like black sea bass, tautog, flounder, triggerfish, sea robin, and such. I'd love to watch the fish I catch and eat as they behave in a massive aquarium, but again, it's just a dream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a practical benefit to it though, if all really goes downhill quickly...🍣 My dream fish is dwarf seahorse. Gonna have to be really really good at many escalating levels of difficulty before trying that one.

Paul Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 When I had my first tank (20 gal) back in the late 60's I wanted Discus. I even kept a few with very limited success. I have a few tanks now with many different species of fish that I really like but Discus will always be THE FISH for me. Now they have a much bigger tank to swim in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Blake Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 My dream is owning crocodilians I am the type of crazy that I will own at least one one day. I am looking at getting a morlets or a broad snouted caiman but these are species that I need the room to keep and so I'll have to wait a while before I can get them. A American alligator is on the list as well but that will probably come when I have the space and someone who doesn't have the space needs to re-home their pet. I own a 3 foot alligator gar named bubbles Right now he is almost 10 years old and in a 800 gallon aquarium. the dream tank for him is a 20 foot wide by 8 feet deep by 50 feet long but that will take time and money so it's something I also have to work towards. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonske Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 My dreams change every time I go to a pet market. The latest edition is a bunch of longfin platinum koi and a big black ghost knife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I am with @Paul , it is still discus for me. Watching a breeding pair in a big tank is pretty cool. But, now that @RovingGinger has mentioned it...maintaining a breeding colony of dwarf seahorses could be...dang this forum for putting ideas into my head!

shkote Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 My dream fish for the longest time was a Flowerhorn. I found one semi-locally and couldn't pass him up. He's a big jerk, but also playful like a little puppy, I love it. The other I'd really love to have eventually would be a Vieja synspilum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
