Damselfish: Damselfish are agile and active, easy to feed, and tolerate fluctuations in water quality; they are commonly kept in the marine aquarium and all have a different appearance and temperament. |
 |
Squirrelfish: During the day, squirrelfish hide out in nooks and crevices along the reef tract; found in all tropical seas, these predatory, nocturnal fish have conspicuously large eyes, stout fin spines and rough scales. |
 |
Marine Eels: Marine eels make interesting displays in your tank but are usually kept on their own since, should they get the least bit hungry, they’ll most likely eat everyone else. They live in caves along a reef. |
 |
Grouper: Groupers are also known as Jewfish in the Caribbean, and it was once common to see these creatures along every healthy reef. Now, due to fishing pressure, a full-grown healthy grouper is a rare sighting. |
 |
Goby: Gobies are a huge family of fish found along the sandy and rocky shores of tropical, subtropical and even temperate seas. They are extraordinarily long-lived for reef fish; ten years is the longest on record so far. |

Triggerfish: When taking a leisurely scuba dive along a reef, you may acquire a curious companion who cautiously swims beyond the range of your reach but remains with you for a good length of time. |

Surgeonfish: Looking for a lively, colorful fish that likes to swim a lot? Surgeonfish (also commonly known as a tang) are relatively easy to feed and keep healthy; and because they do not bother coral, they are among the most popular to keep in a reef tank. |
 |
Butterflyfish: Butterflyfish include some of the most beautiful of all saltwater aquarium fish. Graceful swimmers with striking coloration and shapes, they are among the most popular fish to keep, but they often lack in compatibility and so must be chosen with care. |

 |
Angelfish: Saltwater angelfish are among the most beautiful of all reef creatures with colors deep and rich and often cleverly painted by Neptune into stripes and spots. Angelfish live in rocky areas and reefs where feast on the abundant coral. |
 |
Clownfish and a Sea Anemone: Which reef enthusiast hasn’t been intrigued by the strange relationship of the clownfish and the sea anemone? The anemone mercilessly entangles various small fish in its paralyzing grip, but spares the little colorful clownfish the same fate, allowing it to nestle safely among its stinging arms.” |
