Bored into leaving
It's amazing how quickly the below post in the normal members pics section has disappeared. Anyhow, I know some of you salty peeps like the weirder stuff, so regardez vous ici:
Well, the lfs has finally found some decent frogs, so naturally I came home a happy man, but somewhat lighter in the pocket.
The old one has continued its colour change and now looks like this:
Those that saw the earlier threads will know that he started off looking like this:
But then this is more about new fish than old ones. So earlier today the reef tank looked like this:
Until the fish were moved into their new quarters. While the first one happily swam out of the bag
The other one had to be helped:
And so we focus on the more yellow fish which looks to be another Antennarius maculatus and very similar in colouration to the one I already had. The main difference would appear to be that there are less spots, which I assume will mean a less potent ability to change colour (the old one could be black, brown, green, orange or yellow).
And then there is the other one, ostensibly another A. maculatus though I am not so sure. I have not yet studied it with the books out, but the genereal structure has me more in mind of a Lophiochoran sp than a member of the Antennarius genus.
Regardless, he does look cool:
In case anyone wondered how I get such good shots, I have a Nina:

Don't worry about the cyano; it'll lose it's grip eventually, and I must say yours is pretty compared to the thick rusty slime that once covered my tank's sand bed.
