Anyone on here ever keep a frogfish/angler in a tank with a BTA or LTA? A local reefer has some very nice ones but the only tank I could put one in is my frogfish tank. I know some nems like carpets are a no but was curious about others.

I've never kept them together, but I've kept both over the years. I would have no problem keeping a BTA with a frogfish. BTAs are pretty benign in that regard.

I have kept both as well and typically I would just go for it but I would hate to have something happen to the frogfish.
