    Best named creature?

    Was watching "Life" last night on t'BBC1.

    There was this little fella featured:

    Sarcastic fringehead - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    I wasn't sure I'd heard the name properly first time, but yes, he's a Sarcastic Fringehead Fish.

    Some amazing footage of two of them fighting.

    What gets your vote for best named creature?

    Practise makes us a little better, it doesn't make us perfect.

    What would Vedder do?

        They had them on the programme last night too. I thought "weedy" was just Mr Attenborough being disparaging.

          I loved the Sarcastic Fringehead too, it was an amazing programme full of some fish I'd not seen before, the Fringehead took the biscuit though it was like some sort of alien

                They did remind me of something when they were fighting...

                          There is a small fish sometimes sold in aquarium shops, black-and-white stripes. It is called a Humbug. The other 'pet fish' that seems to me well named is the 'domino damsel fish', black with 2 white spots.......
                          Flowers come in too many colours to see the world in black-and-white.

                            Yes, there's also a tiny black and yellow fish called a Bumble Bee Gobi. We tried to keep some in our community tank, but the didn't last very long. We did have lots of success it Bristlenoses though. They kept breeding, so we sold all the babies back to the pet shop - we paid for all our guinea pig and fish food for about two years on the proceeds.
