In my travels yesterday I went to a lfs and found a pair of yellow spot scorpionfish. I brought one home for my beginning pred tank

I tried the frozen, but I didn't see him eat. As soon as I hit the water he sped off and his behind a rock.

It's because he hates you and wants to come to my house.

Did you have one before, Doug? I forget.

Nice try o_O

I have liked them, but never had one before. I always seemed to find the bigger scorps, small ones eluded me.
