I work at a big als and a few months ago we came across a small venemous fish called a prehistoric monster fish. I haven't seen them around anywhere else. I wan't to get one now as they are cool and venemous. does anyone know anything about them?:headbang2

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).
 
Didn't know they were venomous, COOL!!!
 
it looks like a frog fish or whatever you call em.. The ones that just sit at the bottom of the tank and look like a turd. Them but the body is longer
 
yea its a frog fish.
 
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.
