Anglerfish, oftentimes also referred to as Frogfish, are one of the more unique looking families of saltwater fish.
They have the ability to change their colors in order to blend in with their surroundings. This ability helps them feed since they will eat any other live fish that's even slightly smaller than them. It's important to not keep smaller fish alongside an anglerfish since they will eventually be eaten by the anglerfish. They tend to remain peaceful with any fish larger than them with the exception of other anglerfish.
They will not nip at coral but will eat any small invertebrate like crabs and shrimp.
