I saw this unique fish at my lfs today. it was listed as a crocodile fish, and was around $50. it looked like a flat goby type fish with a huge mouth. I have never even heard of it. Does anyone have any info on this fish??
thanks

i have no idea how big that one is, but the one at my lfs is about 2 inches. I was wondering if it was a good buy because i did some research, and no other site sells them. I dont really know if they are meant to be kept in a home aquarium or just the lfs got it by luck??
thanks

i think i am, its a rare find ( i think ) lol
right now its small, but i only have a 36g bow, but i think it would be good?
any suggestions on what it eats, or how hardy it may be??
thanks again

Same care as an angler. no ornamental shrimp or small fish. defintily to small for a 36 gallon but you can get it now and upgrade to lets say a 120.

no but I have seen them before. They really dont do much for me and you would be kind of limited on what could go in the tank.

It would seem that it would eat pretty much anything you could put in a 36 gallon. Maybe it would eat my damsels,
And no that steve irwin quip isn't quite funny yet.
