Olga,
Is this the same angler you were going to keep in a fish bowl because it was so small? So did you use eggcrate to make it its own portion of your aquarium? (I can't tell from the picture- I have old eyes.)

Believe me I am not trying to be snooty but a 100.00 is not that much for many of the fish available. Well yes that is a snooty statement. I am not wealthy but my one and only vice is fish so thats where I spend some coin. As far as the price that I paid? I don't think it is important and many of you won't believe me anyway. It helps to be in the game of rare fish for decades, but I guarantee you all the fish I post pics of were over the 100.00 price that was listed... T

I would like to see some pics of some fish that you spent a hundred bucks on are more. Post prices prices too. Bought for 100$ but with shipping 140. a 1 inch painted angler.
$140 for a 1 inch painted frogfish is way too expensive. Be careful about buying from the same place, again. Wartskin frogfish often go for $100 or more, but the more common anglers (ie painted, striated, sargassum etc) are easy to come by for $25-$40.

That is either a hispidus or a striatus depending on the lure
