New Frogfish (pic)

[fishlovr]

Here's a pic of my new frogfish, "Dudley(do right)." He's a whoppin' 2 1/2 inches long He ate a piece of frozen silversides 10 minutes after he was acclimated. I'm really encouraged as the last two frogs I've tried didn't make it. One died from "Ick" and the other quit eating after 10 days. I purchased Dudley from a different source......really love him!

Is that A.pictus? i am getting a wartskin in the near future - very cool

The LFS where I got Dudley thought he was a warty, but I think he may be a pictus.....time will tell

Im pretty sure it is a Pictus- a wartskin has a lot more texture and is seldom one solid color especially bright red- but....

Either way, I'll love him......hopefully this one will be healthy

Just post the pic- not the site- they can change color- the yellow is just one pattern

I think it is a pictus as well. It is a really nice shade of red!

Dudley is in a 20L tank with LR. I plan on buying a fake coral that is bright red and placing it in his tank. It would sure be nice if he stayed fire engine red
