Unfortunately he died about a month ago. I posted it in another thread but forgot to mention it here.

After my experience and from hearing about others not having much success with frogfish I doubt I will ever try one again. Any frogfish would definitely eat wrasses. I saw film of a frogfish eating a lionfish in the wild, it was pretty crazy to watch, they are a species that need a tank to themselves.

I'm sorry to hear that. I've heard that they'll eat anything that'll fit in their mouths. The only tank I have that I could put him in where he'd be the smallest occupant, he would probably get eaten (I'm "fish sitting" a stonefish, and I've no doubts he would eat the frog at the first opportunity).

Ya a stonefish would eat a frogfish and vice versa, but definitely one or the other would get eaten. Also remember that frogfish's mouth's expand quite a bit and they can usually eat fish twice their size.

Thanks, it's Doug's though....sadly most of the nice stuff in there is Doug's. However I was at red coral Edmonton today and Steve has frags of the same favia for sale and I'm sure AI could get some in
