Bongo Shrimp Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 This is Rogue. Rouge likes Frozen Formula One Cubes. He's a good puppy. Link to comment
Squared Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 do these guys bite? cause my clown's biting is getting stronger, and it is actually starting to hurt. wonder what it would be like to be bitten by one of these chunky fellows :/ Link to comment
Bongo Shrimp Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 They don't even bite their food so no they would not bite a human. And plus when they see your hand coming for them they just lower their head and try to look like a rock. Link to comment
Bongo Shrimp Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Umm, what teeth? Anglers don't have or need teeth. Link to comment
HVani Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 So freaking cute! If I had more than 1 salt tank I would have an angler for sure Link to comment

Bill Nye Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 What size tanks do you guys have those in? It must be hard to keep a reef with them as they seem to be very messy eaters . How often do you feed?? Either way awesome fish guys. I really like the wartskin! Link to comment
supernip Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I havent had an angler for a while but the one I want again, is a hawaiian A. tuberosus. More golem like, and a lot smaller than even A. maculatus Link to comment

wartskin Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 This is Rogue. Rouge likes Frozen Formula One Cubes. He's a good puppy. When you said he eats frozen cubes I had to watch wow way cool! I like the black ones that was gonna be my next choice how big is he? Link to comment
supernip Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 that looks like a pictus or commerson's. I dont remember how those two move their lures, but way too big for a nano either way Link to comment
wartskin Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 do these guys bite? cause my clown's biting is getting stronger, and it is actually starting to hurt. wonder what it would be like to be bitten by one of these chunky fellows :/ They don't bite they inhale and I don't think it would bother ya Link to comment

How often do you feed?? Either way awesome fish guys. I really like the wartskin! I have mine in a 14gal. I have corals and its just fine. they inhale their prey not chew like a puffer so the only mess is the dog poop sized $#!? they take I feed on Wed. & Sun. Silversides I havent had an angler for a while but the one I want again, is a hawaiian A. tuberosus. More golem like, and a lot smaller than even A. maculatus Would love to see it when ya get it post a pic here when ya do Link to comment
Bongo Shrimp Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 The teeth looking things are probably just tissue. They have a lot of funky shaped tissue all over their bodies. Rogue is about 4" long. All anglers can change colors and quite quickly. Rogue was black but due to all the HA (I'm working on it) and the orange mushrooms and serpent star he has turned dark green with a few orangey red spots. Do NOT buy for color. And yes, anglers (and a lot of other fish) use suction feeding and then they swallow their prey whole. Link to comment
Doliver Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I've never paid attention to these, but those are some really neat fish! I want to see more pics. Link to comment

Thrassian Atoll Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Very cool fish! Are these normally reef fish, or are they a deeper water? Link to comment
