2 In just two days of underwater training and two days of full diving, our list continued to grow, from sea turtles to frogfish and all sizes in between.

3 We spent our days diving with Bluemotion, who said that they would try their hardest to find what all divers dream to find: the psychedelic frogfish!

4 The residents of this marine civilization have extravagant names like azure demoiselles, pewter angelfish, painted frogfish and saddle butterflyfish.

5 We visited to find the elusive psychedelic frogfish, which was discovered in 2008 and only resides in these waters.

6 There is even a type of frogfish known as "sargassum fish" who live solely in this habitat.

8 I saw a frogfish on a nature documentary, and I wanted to know if they are genetically related to chameleons, because they have similar facial characteristics.

9 In the more than 1,000 dives that hobbyist diver Atsushi Sadaki claims to have been on, he says he's seen a few frogfish but never any moving in this way.

10 In some species, like the striated frogfish, males and females come together and release sperm and egg into the water.

11 The frogfish can use its fins as legs, but only underwater, where its weight is already mostly supported.

12 The frogfish is normally associated with sargassum seaweed, floating and travelling on the algae for thousands of miles from the Atlantic Ocean.

13 On coral reefs, for example, frogfish can push off surfaces with their fins.

14 Both stingfish and frogfish can be found in benthic zones, or the bottom of a body of water, where they lay in wait for prey.

15 Ten species of fish live only in sargassum, including the frogfish, which camouflages itself as a scrap of seaweed.

16 Called also fishing frog, frogfish, toadfish, goosefish, allmouth, monkfish, etc.

17 But these are very few: "greenfish," "maid," "wife," and "frogfish" perhaps, all of which, however, are well-known in England.

18 Before frogfish had been widely studied, it was believed they were amphibious and able to use this walking motion to move about on land.

19 While diving off the coast of Sulawesi, Indonesia, one diver captured video of a frogfish taking a stroll along the ocean floor.

20 Unlike frogfish, stingfish have pectoral fins that are separated and more apt at movement.
