Named for their prominent barbels, which give the image of cat-like whiskers. They feature some of the smallest known vertebrates, including the candiru, the only vertebrate parasite to attack humans, as well as Mekong giant catfish, the largest reported freshwater fish. There are armour-plated types and also naked types, neither having scales. Despite their common name, not all catfish have prominent barbels; what defines a fish as being in the order Siluriformes are in fact certain features of the skull and swimbladder. These fish are also nocturnal. And the females typically grow bigger than the males.
Just in case anyone was interested in my 'pick' of fish...

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 2:30:28 AM | It's cute and interesting. Of course you're not going to put descriptions by the fish names because that would ruin the whole point -- the names themselves offer forth vague ideas of what they mean. It keeps a little mystery and hints at a personality or style. Actually a pretty clever idea.
I say keep it. | |

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 4:36:40 AM | Can we request additions? I wanted to be Fugu.
I know, I know.... Pufferfish.... but it doesn't have the same ring! | |

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 5:37:04 AM | Oh please add one more Fish and I'll send you an MP3 by Kip Addotta called Wet Dream of all fish puns. The fish I request is Marlin.

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 6:45:26 AM | I like it! Totally keeping with the 'fish' theme. I was hoping for a small graphic of the type of fish I picked. Great job, keep up the good work!

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 7:46:53 AM | I want Mermaid. True, it's an imaginary fish, but I'd like it anyway.

PS -- While I'm asking for additional picks, why can't I pick Wiccan as my religion? | |
|
| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 7:50:42 AM | | I always assumed that is what people meant by "other religion" ... yes, it's main stream enough that it should be an option, but it opens up room for a lot more similar religions to want their own spot on the drop down. | |

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 8:13:40 AM | I do not see the personality thing that you are talking about...I'm I missing it? Let me know. Thank you.

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 8:17:33 AM | I would add the ability to post (or link to) larger photos, otherwise don't change a thing, your pages are very "lightweight" and load fast, very nice. | |

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 8:29:32 AM | A good notion of having members express themselves in a unique way, but using a species of FISH without an accompanying "definition/description of what that fish means (ie- blowfish - modest and calm, but can be "big headed" at times or "I may appear meek and mild, but I have an a side that's larger than life" or more to you than meets the eye, or watch out when you get this one upset. you might get more of a reaction than you bargain for) to identify one's personality is a not the most effective way of communicating personality type. Maybe limit the number of choices of Fish to choose from, and then assign descriptions/definitions of what each type of fish signifies.
Members choosing a specific fish type or types (allow for more than one to be selected) will be enough more of a springboard for conversation, since the member will then be able to ask more direct and/or relevant questions as icebreakers....instead of the general question that ALL members will be stuck asking of "So, why a blowfish?"
Imagine getting 20 replies with that same question. Yeah, it gets old. Would be a lot more interesting to be able to have members ask more directly, "So, you are a blowfish...uh-oh...so, there's more to you than meets the eye. How so?"
Anyway, just my thoughts. | |
|
| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 8:32:22 AM | How about Smelt? Minnow? BAIT? LMAO...or Bill Engvall's Dorkfish?? Or maybe just "Pond Scum" or "Bloodsucker".
Gotta luv it

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 9:01:16 AM | Excellent suggestions! I particularly like BAIT. I would also add WHALE and/or Blubber.

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 9:46:53 AM | hello admin. I went into view my profile to see if by choosing the fish, I feel that I might be. I guess I'm asking, what is to this? I thought, maybe a funny pic or something, so I don't know what the big deal is. I like it, sure but there should more to it, I guess. | |
|
| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 9:48:08 AM | | I would of like to choose the orca whale. Unfortunately, there is no choice for it. | |

| Fish Personalities..... Posted: 3/15/2007 11:35:15 AM | | I personally think that it should stick to fish: ie no dolphins, turtles, whales, seahorses, man o war, jellyfish, octopus etc...After all, this is plenty of fish, not "plenty of water living creatures"...of course this is JMO. | |

| Cancer N' Society Posted: 3/15/2007 12:02:49 PM | I guess it would be cool if we were to basically chat and meet cool people from around the world. It's a great idea I think to have this on here. But I think alot to the guy that made this site period. He's the best and I don't mind looking into these type of things, I think it's awesome.
