I too ponder these things

if they are from peru, monster fish usually means "Batrachoid sp." they are like the freshwater version of the stone fish,

it's cool how big does it get?

I would say 6-8 inches max,, I used to have 4 of them in one tank at one point. they like sandy bottom tanks and I haven't been able to get them off live food. unfortunately they died when I had a PH crash.
