Great!
Now remove the shrimp and damsals and give them to a local hobbyist.

also, make sure you don't feed the frog fish too often once every 1-2 weeks (depending on the size of the frog fish) should be plenty.
if you feed too often the original food that you feed will rot in the digestive system while the frog fish tries to digest the second round of food, eventually killing the frogfish.

How does an organism such as this make it past the first round of culling on the great ride known as Evolution? I'm just saying if eating kills you.. well Good luck.

the reason is because frogfish in the wild eat very rarely. frogfish will wait for the absolute perfect shot on prey, which means most fish swimming by are too quick for it.
