Frogfish on Similan Islands - Thailand Diving

You here us talk about Frogfish pretty frequently. Small fish that barely move and look funny...might not seem like much...but they are fascinating.

This is a great video...as you can see clearly how they just sit still and blend into their surroundings. In this case the Pink colored frogfish on the Similan Islands looks virtually the same as pink sponges that are found here.

They also have large mouths - VERY large mouths. As they can not swim, they actually use a form of suction with their enormous mouths to capture and eat their prey. Here we can see this frogfish yawning.

If you would like to see these amazing fish - why not join us for a Similan Islands Liveaboard?
