Description
Rhinopias or Paddle-flap Scorpionfish are very fascinating fish. They camouflage themselves as debris on the sea bed and wait for prey. They will spend most of their time on the bottom of the tank and very rarely swim. Feed only live prey 2-3 times per week. Feed only prey that will fit into their mouths. Rhinopias do not require a very large tank. Rhinopias are very laid back, however beware as their dorsal fins are venomous.
