I have read a lot of success stories with tiny anglers in nanos and I was wondering if anyone here has tried this? and if so what else do you keep in your tank? thanks

Are you referring to a frogfish? If so I believe that they can do well in a 20

been thinking about it - you could keep some damsels - but they would be lunch.
The tank would have to be well maintained!
Good luck and post back if you decide to do it!!

yes those are anglers but this is another example of an angler...one that would fit in a nano and i'm wondering if people have put this with other tiny reef guys other than inverts and fish like possibly a spaghetti or snowflake eel?

My buddy has one in a 30 cube. He has yet to see him eat anything. I sure he is eating just not when the lights are on. Are these hard to keep?

from what i read...they are not too hard to keep and aren't very active...yet they look great and are a really unique fish...which is why i might have to get one...they also are awesome looking eaters too from what i gather

Is there food in the tank at night?
