Hehe... thanks!
Frogfishes are in the 2 middle compartments on the cubicle tank. Probably too much coralline and other algae in there for you to see them, haha.
Here's a pic I just took of the wartskin (A. maculatus). He was black with red dots when I got him. He lost his juvenile coloration and turned into this color morph.
Can't get a pic of the A. pictus. He's hiding in the back of his compartment.
I've been cutting up pieces of Ocean Nutrition gel cubes for them. I used to give them pieces of fish market shrimp, but haven't done that in a long time. Seem to be doing pretty good with the gel cubes.
They normally eat live food, but you can train them to take frozen food if you're patient.
I start with live ghost shrimp skewered on some fishing line. After a week or so I freeze the shrimps and use the fishing line again. After the frogfish gets used to non live ghost shrimps, I sneak in some other type of food.
