Toadfish (Batrachoididae species)
The Toadfish is an interesting and unique species, known for its flattened body, large mouth, and somewhat "frog-like" appearance. Native to both the Atlantic and Indo-Pacific, it is a bottom-dwelling species that prefers muddy or sandy substrates where it can bury itself and ambush prey. While not typically seen in reef tanks, the Toadfish is a fascinating addition to species-specific tanks. It is a carnivore that feeds on small fish, crustaceans, and mollusks.
