This juvenile frogfish or anglerfish (latin name Antennarius maculatus) lives at the Drop Off in Tulamben.

Tom found it sitting among black stones at a depth of 5 - 7 meters.
Its tiny size makes it difficult to spot, but the contrast of its white color against the black stones means that this is not impossible.

The fish is only about the size of the pinky nail on an adult man. Wolfgang from WaterWorx Dive Center has also seen this small buddy before, which I found shocking as it is so teeny.

But when we compared notes and location, we decided it must be the same one.
It will be there until predators get it.
