Three-spined Frogfish (Batrachomoeus trispinosus) is an unusual toadfish from estuary, mangrove and coastal habitats. Despite the common name, this is not a planted-community freshwater fish. It is a specialist ambush predator for brackish to marine-style aquariums.
| Sale size | 5-6 cm on this variant; larger size variants may appear on the parent listing |
|---|---|
| Adult size | Can exceed 20 cm, so plan a spacious adult aquarium |
| Water | Hard, alkaline brackish to marine conditions; stable salinity is essential |
| Temperament | Predatory, sedentary and best kept with robust, carefully chosen tank mates |
| Diet | Meaty foods such as shrimp, mussel, squid, krill and fish flesh |
This fish spends much of its time camouflaged on the bottom, waiting for food to pass. Use a mature aquarium with sand, caves, rockwork and open feeding areas. Avoid small fish or ornamental invertebrates, which may be eaten.
Because this species comes from estuary and coastal habitats, long-term success depends on stable mineral-rich water and a keeper who is comfortable managing salinity, water quality and target feeding.
