Dom's fish

[Domboski]

That is one of the best looking Sargassum Anglers I've ever seen. That black and white scorpion is pretty amazing too, I love small scorpions just awesome fish. Do you have a species name for the little guy? I can't find anything like that one.

It was listed as Scorpaena caribbaeus but I think it is actually Scorpaena plumieri.

Is that the juvenile phase?

Those are some crazy photographs, the detail on the fish almost looks like it's hand painted.

Beautiful pics and beautiful fish!

Yes they are small. S. plumieri has many color variants that's why I am suspecting that's what they are. They came from the Florida Keys. Apparently in my system thats what they consider camouflage. Very cool fish and pretty smart.
