I think Christian might have one in one of his tanks. They are super cool.

Petco has one that definitely caught my interest. Been reading info on them. But I would have to have a clownfish-less tank to keep one, and I love clowns :/

Hmm, I'm going to look around to see if I can find a really small one. Petco has one that I'm guessing is close to full grown. And red would be neat to have to, no luck finding any tho

I had some few years ago. Really cool fish, but tank mates are limited. Colored ones always fetch higher prices.

That's what I have is a nano, he would be the only fish as anything bigger would require bigger tank. Lol

Cool. It does take a little work to get them to eat non-living foods.

I don't mind feeding live since its only once a week or so. I don't want an overweight frogfish lol. But I'm pretty fascinated with them!! And I can still keep all my coral, there's not many fish I actually like besides clowns, anything else I just don't have s big enough tank for anyway.

Once they are trained to eat frozen food, they'll hit anything you throw in the tank. There used to be an online forum dedicated just to frogfish, but I can't remember the name of it. One of Scott Michaels Reef Fishes volumes has really good id/descriptions of various frogfish.

I'm on the hunt of a vendor for one, preferably red, and a small one
