VIDEOS: Frogfish Mating is CRAZY and AMAZING!
The courtship and mating of pelagic-spawning frogfishes & anglerfishes is an incredible sight. The female rapidly swells with eggs to the point where she appears ready to burst. The act culminates in what some have described as a tornado of eggs and sperm, with a massive egg-raft or veil as it is sometimes called being expelled by the female in a matter of seconds. If you’ve never seen it before, you’re going to be impressed and perplexed.

Hi, thank you so much for taking the time and effort to produce this excellent list! It's fantastic to see that more species are being captive-bred. I am using the list for a research project and wanted to clarify if the listing of a species means that it has been successfully bred even if the availability is none? If you are interested I'd also be happy to share more about the project.Iris Smith says:
The statement that pH controllers have long been employed in big household systems or in commercial settings as industry standards is really intriguing. I work in the business sector, and my organisation is looking for alternatives to the increasingly crucial capability to examine and monitor water parameters from anywhere. To ensure things go smoothly, I'd want to advise my boss to use the pH controller service.
