Does anyone have photos of pregnant frogfish/angler fish such as the one seen on my site here: http://www.gordonious.com/ ??? I am curious if mine either has a funky growth on the bottom of it, if it may have swallowed more then it could handle, or if it might be pregnant.

No sorry, I don't. Is it floating... or look like it is close to floating?

How long have you had him/her?

I have had it about a month and it still sinks to the bottom like it is supposed to.

UPDATE! It appears to be alive!

It's living inside my frogfish!!! (http://forum.marinedepot.com/Topic65595-10-1.aspx)

:eek: That's scary. I think that I would get it out of my DT.

DT?

I have figured out that it is likly some sort of isopod. Tomorrow a little more research and perhaps an attempt to remove it.

Display tank... that's creepy. Yes, get it out. I have never seen anything like that. Film and photo document everything you can!

reminds me of aliens with the chest poping. kiiiiiiillllllllll mmmmeeee! :raining:

Yikes....the other picture of that guys frog fish was pretty amazing! Do you see the isopod in the same spot on your fish?

Good luck Dude....I wouldn't want to be in your shoes....yuck!
