So this might be fun. :D As we all know, fish all are different and have seperate personalities. Let's tell a little bit about our own fishies!

Which of your fish is the most.... (give type, name, stories, whatever you'd like!):

Greedy
Picky
Friendly
Shy
Horny :hey:
Lazy
Hyper
Biggest Bully
Sensitive
Hardy
Etc. :)

For me -

Greedy: Probably my female cherry barb. She gorges herself at every meal. :blink:
Picky: My Gold Ram - I had to try several dry foods before he was happy. :rolleyes:
Friendly: The mustard gas veiltail betta downstairs in a bowl - he never fails to say hello when someone walks by!! :wub:
Shy: One of my pgymy cories... I often don't see it. I even thought it was dead for a few weeks. :unsure:
Horny: Definitely my female Betta foerschi. She's a freak. :hyper:
Lazy: I honestly don't have any lazy fish, they're all nuts.
Hyper: Name a danio, any danio. :p
Biggest Bully: Humperdink, my male dwarf gourami. He is king of his tank, and whenever I introduce something new he makes sure they know it. :flex:
Sensitive: Once again, the gold ram - I didn't do one of his twice weekly water changes and he was whining to me for a month. :rolleyes:
Hardy: Either of the remaining two danio parents I have - they survived my cycle when I was a newbie. :*)

Greedy - My baby firemouth attacks my fingers when I submerge flake (so the filter flow distributes it throughout the whole tank).

Picky - My creme-red female VT (Fargo)

Friendly - Short finned male betta (Santino) next to kitchen sink.

Shy - My 3.5 year old skunk loach (Ganja)

Horny - My krib pair, but I used to have a male endler that would try to get it on with neons. :hey:

Lazy - Again, my baby firemouth. Why chase food throughout the tank, when you can just take all from my fingers?

Hyper - Baby skunk loaches.

Bully - My male Ocellatus. (It's his tank, his shells, his plants......)

Sensitive - none atm

Hardy - My male Apisto Borelli (Chavez)

Sneaky :ninja:- My male Gold Wonder Killi is constantly sneaking out of the Hornworth and will nip my arm or fingers when I an cleaning the tank.
 
Greedy - Nemo, the fat stupid lemon goldfish and the catfish who eats EVERYTHING, er, except algae!
Picky - clown loaches who turn their little snouts up at all the delicacies I offer
Friendly - None of 'em are particularly friendly

Sensitive - Cher (sick all the time from one thing or another)
Hardy - Cher (but not dead yet!)

(Yes, Cher, the incredible Australian gold moor is still kicking around just waiting for some new disease to come along!)
 
Greedy - Seigfried and Percy, my Gouramis. They always are the first and last to eat and are always fighting over that last scrap. :rolleyes:

Picky - My Kuhlis. One day they like algae wafers, the next day they don't. I never know how to please these guys. :lol:

Friendly - Tied between Draco and Shinwa. These two bettas never fail to say hello to me when I go to the tank to look in on them. :wub:

Shy - Rex, my gibby plec. He's been getting better about this, but still hides most of the time when I get near the tank.

Horny - My male Swordtail. Goes after anything and everything in the tank...including the male Platies! :lol: :rofl: :hey:

Lazy - I dont' really have many lazy fish, but I guess if I had to pick it would be Mantas, one of my CT bettas. He just swims very slowly around his tank, and when his tankmate Seto flare at him he just sorta stares him, figures it's too much effort and swims away. :lol:

Hyper - Definitely my Clown Loaches. These guys never stop moving and are always doing something to rile up the tank. :wub:

Biggest Bully - My male Bristlenose, Legato. He's got quite the mean streak in him if he wants.

Sensitive - My betta Darius. He's just so sweet, anything bothers him. Water changes, when Shinwa flares at him... He's got a great personality, but always seems to be complaining about something. :lol:

Hardy - My female Platy Comet. She was one of the first fish I got, she's survived two rehomings, and has never gotten sick even once. I've come to the conclusion that this fish is never gonna die. :flex:
 

Greedy - all, always hungry
Picky - none, I should be so lucky
Friendly - Buttons (Cambodian Betta), always so playful and attentive, not shy
Shy - Von Bismarck (Dwarf Catfish), very skittish and nervous
Horny - Dang Banger (Red plakat), my most active bubblenester
Lazy - Grumpy (Upsidedown Catfish) does nothing but sleep all day
Hyper - Justin (Red HM Betta), always swimming in an S-shaped up front
Fiesty - Evil Ryu (Viet fighter), pressing his face forward for more, lots of splash
Biggest Bully - the two Red-Eye Tetra, they picked on poor Buttons
Sensitive - Inkspot (marble Betta), needs more attention than others
Hardy - Speedy (white cloud), drop him in, he don't care, he just wants to eat
Bossy - Shiva (weird plakat), literally pushed Grumpy out of the cave
 
Greedy- Martha the fahaka Pufferfish without doubt. She's now up to three whole frozen prawns per day with a dozen mealworms as a bedtime snack.

Picky- Our Chacachacas will only eat food that moves, up until now that meant small tetras, but now we've weaned them onto live river shrimp.

Friendly- Martha again. Always at the top of the tank when you go near, but of course, it's only cupboard love really.

Shy- Our Medusa Bristlenose, we've not seen more than a couple of glimpses of her since she was introduced.

Horny- Female krib. She bends in half and sudders at anything, even Panzer, the Armoured Shrimp!

Lazy- Archie the Target Puffer. If the food isn't within striking distance of his cave, then he isn't interested.

Hyper- Rummynose tetra school. Swim up and down the front of the tank non-stop all day

Biggest Bully- Stewart the common plec. When Martha's munching on a prawn, stewart will sometimes push her away and sit on the prawn so she can't get to it, then once she's given up, he'll tuck into the prawn himself.

Sensitive- Archie again. The slightest change in rutine, water or food and he sulks for days.

Hardy- Guppies. Now succesfully cycled four tanks and still going strong.
