Going back to your original post, that seems like a really fast growth rate for ocellaris. I have a pair in my 10 gal, and they haven't grown at all (been in my tank for 6 months)

The post was worded poorly.. the frog doubled in size in about a month.. the clown was also a slow grower had her about 6 months. she did grow quite a bit but nothing like the growth rate of the frog obviously

Fish is still alive been like 3 day now? I am surprised he's still alive. He hasn't moved much and hasn't moved at all from the left side of the tank where I have him pictured

Cool that he is pulling through. I have an angler coming in tomorrow for my 30 gallon.

Thanks! It is supposed to be a waterskin, but the LFS told me that the wholesaler they order from commonly misidentifies frogfish. Is yours still alive?

Yeah he is still alive and I've even fed him a few feeder shrimp

Nice, good to see that they can survive a meal a little bigger than normal.

Well, I have got my angler. He was misidentified, kind of expected it. I was hoping to get some help identifying it. Right now I am in between A.pictus and A.commersons. His esca is shrimp-like, and he has lured 4-5 times now (just got him in today) . When luring so far, he only moves it up and down. I would post my pictures, but it will not let me upload them. Thanks for any help!

Tried putting pictures on an album as well, told me that a security token was missing.

Thanks, I am stuck between A.commerson's and A.pictus. I guess I will have to count fin rays, trying to let him acclimate to the tank though he is luring at my ribbed mussels. He ate some freeze dried brine last night, might not need the ghost shrimp I ordered.

What corals are you keeping with him? Is he a pictus?

I honestly never cared enough to find out, I'm keeping him with LPS and SPS a cans trumpet Coral and then of course you know the softies mushrooms...
And I know that's not the preferred set up but he manages pretty fine

Ok, just trying to figure out what I want to keep with mine. Although I must say I am not liking the idea of a heavy flow tank, might go with frogspawn, maybe some sps and lps, and other corals like frogspawn and some mushrooms. Has your frogfish changed color to match any of the corals yet? Thinking about trying to throw a sponge in there.

My tank isn't heavy flow at all

Oh, was not implying that it was, was kind of just kind of trying to think about how I wanted the tank.
