Giant anglerfish Profile

The Giant anglerfish (Antennarius commerson) is characterized by its ability to change color, commonly displaying hues of brown, gray, or yellow to blend with its surroundings. Originating from the Indo-Pacific region, this species is notable for its distinctive appearance, featuring a large, flattened body, and an elongated filament on its head used for luring prey. Despite its fascinating morphology, it is not commonly found in the aquarium hobby, largely due to its size and specialized care requirements.
