Scorpion Fish

Pretty nice dude! Wow.

Hey, wasn't your frogfish redder than that at one point? Or was it always like that? Or do they change colour over time, or is it a mood thing?

Dude I can't believe you are getting away with that combo! Anyone of those fish could pick off the seahorse and it looks like the frogfish and the lion are both small enough to be a rhino snack at any time.

I would have never risked it myself but it sure makes for an awesome combo. I hope it works out long term.

Thanks. The frog fish was once much more colorful. Over time he has changed his color to better blend into the suroundings, I suspect this is pretty normal behavior. Keeping some bright orange coral would likely help bring his color back. I do miss his crazy color but he's still a cool fish.

I think the key is the smaller frogfish, that's the guy you have to worry about but he's too small to take on anything else in the tank. Accidents have occurred when food is between two tank mates but no harm done. I don't think the rhino could eat the frogfish as it's still too big of a meal, and the lion is not that much smaller than the rhino. The rhino could probably eat the seahorse but hasn't shown any interest at this point and seems to be pretty specific on what he eats, for now anyway.
I might just me lucky but everything seems to get along quite well.
