Welcome to MFK!!!

Do a search here using 'Thalassophryne'. There's a ton of info already on MFK on the monster fish (including breeding them). It's full name is: Thalassophryne amazonica (if you want to google more info).

they are strictly...not moveable. i had one, and it picked a spot, burried itself, and didnt move. the say it is venomous in the fins or somthing, but i handled mine and i never had a reaction of anykind. cool lookin fish, but boring.
