Do you prefer big fish or small fish.

I love large schools of small fish :wub: I love watching them sticking together the way they do :thumbs: I do adore my big fish too though, so I'm on the fence as well :p
 
big fish mainly, being the reason i'ved just bought a 5x3 tank!!

although i like my L numbers about and alot of them are quite small and delicate.

but i won't like small as in tetras!!
 
The bigger the better the tighter the sweater! Err, I mean, I like bigger fish. Anything over six inches is good. Things that look like they could eat me.... Awesome. Tiny fish.... cute feeders? :whistle:
 
Really don't care. What I look for in a fish is:
  • A fish that is strange looking or with unusual appendages or adaptations
  • A fish with strange colouring or unusual markings
  • A fish with unusual habits
  • Fish from oddball species or unusual members of 'normal' fish families
  • A fish that's all of the above
Size is unimportant, we have fish from the tiny 1.5" Rhinogobius wui right up to big fat Martha Fahaka who may grow to 18" and our 11" bristlenose, Broccoli.
 
i like small fish. i used to watch one of my brother's baby fish swim around his 55g tank. he was the only fry that survived and he would get all the time in the world to explore every crack and crevice that was available to him. it made me think that in my next life (assuming there is one) i'd want to be a fish, (or a dolphin cuz theyre always so happy), because there's so much underwater that you could explore as opposed to being a bird and flying through a vast sky of.. well, nothing.

small fish just makes you think that there's so much out there in the world. big fish don't really give you that perspective, esp. if theyre kept in small tanks where they get to swim about 5 feet, turn around, and swim the 5 feet again. with a small fish, the 5 ft would seem like miles.
 
Good Topic Wilder!,

I would have to say I like smaller fish more but thats only because I only keep small ones.. So its kinda a give away :)
 
Big fish for me :wub: But,the betta of course is an exception, they're a little fish with big fish attitude :flex: :wub:
