Finding Fish Favorites



It's been more than three years since "Finding Nemo" hit theaters, but guess which fish is still the most popular in tanks of all sizes?

Yep, the clownfish (top). That's what a staffer at Just Fish in Bear told me. They aren't cheap -- one clownfish goes for $20 -- but that movie made such an impression (and those fish just look so fun) that they're still selling well.

My favorite at the store in Fox Run Plaza was the lionfish ($99), a saltwater meanie.
It's a predator -- probably not a great companion for good ol' Nemo. And those spines that make it look so cool are filled with venom, so it's only for fish fans who really know what they're doing. Talk with the folks at Just Fish. They can help.

Ellen Degeneres is great in "nemo" ... she's got the perfect voice for that part.
