Fish Names...

[jhale]

Herman dont listen to Ink i think he has not been wearing a mask when mixing kalk

hahaha.

I never named my fish.

I had a tank in college. people would come in and ask what their names were. i would tell them they had no names. then they would ask if they could name them, and I would always say yes.
those fish had a lot of names, lol

Funny, I also never named my fish, until Wifey insisted on it.
They're names would usually be niger trigger, undulated trigger, yellow tang.....
(if I were to name them)

a few months ago I got very small engineer gobies in my store. Thinking they were too small to really move a lot of sand I got 2 of them (about 2" at the time). In the span of 2 months they have grown to about 6" maybe even a little more and have created an elaborate tunnel system under every last piece of rock in my tank, causing some small amount of nitrate and phosphate in the process. Every attempt to catch them turns into a whack'a'mole like game of placing the net near the hole I think they'll come out of next. For this I have named them (no offense to anyone) Charlie and Cong. I also have an orange spot shrimp goby named "Unibomber" for his preference of burrows that are in the back of the tank away from everyone.

My clow fish name is Nema, yes I belive is a female The Hippo tang name is Gino, he's such a funny fish! I haven't came up with names for the other fishes yet, is not easy to find a name that fit I also named my black moore (fresh water tank) Porcello which in italian means pig, he eats a lot and he's growing so much

 

[remy109]

kno im gonna be condemned for this...but i think naming a fish is ridiculous...

I would agree with slama.
If you start giving your fish a name, what are you gonna do when they die? It woulld be too harsh to give it a flushmonial ceremony.
If you decide to bury it, you'll have to arrange an area to bury other fishies as they tend to pass away, not to mention all the tombstone's that need to be made.

I name everything!!!

2 Trachypyllia - the big pink round one is Oprah (southpark anyone? Jerry!!!) and her friend is Stegman

Emerald Crabs - Brutus and Olive Oyle (named by Jhale by the way)

One of my scarlet hermits was named Greedy because he took a shell that was so big he could hardly move. Unfortunately, Rudolf - the hermit crab with gorgonian growing on his shell like antlers - killed him and took the big shell - ouch!

My lmb is named Jack, Jack Blennie

neon gobie is Vegas

Yellow clown gobie is Mellow Yellow or Blondie

Cerith snails are known as The Sith

Gorgonians known as the Gorgons

3 new convict blennies - known as the Jerks for covering everything with dirt.

Mr. Cleaner Shrimp - self expl.

Hidey Henry the serpent star

Everything else will be named as needed

Good to know I'm not the only only who names my fish!
Two Fire Shrimp are Crusty & Sideshow Bob
Royal Gramma 'Moses'
Flame Angel is Liberace
Brittlestar is Knuckles
Pink Spotted Shrimp Goby is 'Spotty' though he might just change to 'Goofy'
And the snails/hermits/more snails are simply 'The Merry Maids'

 

[Liz]

Two banded clown fish:
Female is Fat head
and the male is Meat head

Spotted Mandarin: SPOT
and
Jaws the Jawfish

My daughter (yes it was her :biggrin: ) named our fish:

pipefish = Ticonderoga
yellow tang = George (from Curious George fame)

I told her that was it. I didn't want her developing an attachment to them in case of their demise (overprotective dad stepping in).
