Frogfish from Mabul Island, Malaysia

[Marriard]

On a big metal pyramid on the shore dive at the back of the Sipidan-Mabul Resort called 'Froggy Point', the Giant Frogfish come out to play. As many as 5 were seen on this structure alone, with 3 or 4 others spotted on other nearby structures.

Here are a few:

That last one not only has a case of the uglies, she was HUGE.

Enjoy,

Finding a Frogfish is like finding a present under the tree....lucky you to find so many at one spot

It's hard to believe how strange those fish look. Nice shots.

The red one is very similar to the one I saw at Paradise Reef in Mabul in September : is it he same one or his little brother ?
