Fantasy Fish

When I was looking for "purple" things a couple of posts ago, I ran across a page of all the most popular marine aquarium species of fish.  That was where I found the royal gramma that I included in my 'Purple' post.  Not only did I find purple fish, but many other spectacular fish that definitely got my attention.  Some of them look like fish created by Walt Disney.  I thought I'd share some of my favorites with you.
