    This is a pretty cool video I got of my frogfish, Zeus, eating a live molly. I am working on switching him to frozen/thawed, but right now he still thinks non-live food is junk. In the meantime, it is interesting to see his natural hunting and luring skills at work, even if I do feel sorry for the molly.

    Thanks Bigb and Rocketmann, I think these are such a cool fish we don't see enough.

    I feed him every 2-3 days. I may space it farther to encourage him to eat other food.

    Very Cool. He is one patient hunter... I love how he slowly turned and crept closer.

    Thanks, for the comments and feedback. It's nice to share him with people who like fish as much as I do!

    But no, I'm not going to feed him damsels - the idea is to get him off of live fish... It makes me sad! lol More importantly, it'll be less risky with him catching something from feeder fish too.
