Its heavily textured skin, irregular markings, and remarkable camouflage allow it to blend into rockwork and coral surroundings. Colouration is highly variable and may include white, yellow, orange, red, brown, and combinations of contrasting patches and spots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePredatory. Best kept alone or with carefully selected tankmates considerably larger than the anglerfish. It can swallow surprisingly large prey and may attempt to eat fish approaching its own body size.
