I spoke to Mike today and he said he can get Pinecone fish in. They are on a list that he has now. He was going to check on price and let me know.

Frogfish are very cool fish. We have brought a few in for customer. We just had a warty frogfish in the store for a customer last week. It had a very nice gray and black pattern on it.

The orange or red ones would be nice to have, if you could find one and you could afford to buy one. $$$$ :(

Brad,
I was/have been thinking of, cold water too. But you would need double walled tanks to keep it from swetting too much. You would be best off, enclosing 3 sides with insulation. Just think you could have prawns any time!!

Acrylic works well for this without the need for double walls

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Have you done that out there Brad ? I still remember our holiday in Tofino, and I gathered all this cool rock that washed up to bring home. Did twice daily water changes etc...... I really wanted to try a cold tank.

Then, the day we left, the red tide warning. The image of hubby chucking those rocks back will remain with me forever.. :D

Deb, when I was in college I worked for the biology department taking care of the cold water tanks. We'd collect stuff from the shores here and divers would also get us stuff.
I'll never forget the octopus crawling away down the corridor!!
Some of the most colorful things I've seen come from down the street!!
