$Weedy Scorpionfish Rhinopias frondosa occurs in the tropical Indo-West Pacific from South Africa (off Durban) east to southern Japan, the Caroline Islands, and eastern Australia in a depth range from 10 to 297m, max. length 23cm. \nThe colour can range from yellow and lavender to dark red and purple. Like most Scorpaenidae, Weedy Scorpionfish are mostly nocturnal ambush hunters, using their camouflage to prey on unsuspecting fish and invertebrates. They rarely swim (thes do not have a swim bladder!), but rather move along the bottom propelling themselves with their fins. \nThis specimen was encountered in the Lembeh Strait, Indonesia.\n1°25'51.21 N 125°11'5.142 E at 30m depth$
