The Butlers Frogfish (Tathicarpus butleri) belongs to the family named Antennariidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 4.0 inches in length, the Butlers Frogfish is generally passive in nature and sensitive in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out or do best in the lower tank area. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Tathicarpus butleri should not be housed in a tank less than 30 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023.
