Mimicry/Camouflage Aquarium : Sneak Peek
In our next project, we hope to show the world how animals avoid predation and hunt prey underwater, by the power of mimicry and camouflage.
Frog Fish/Angler fish : MimicryThe frog fish uses mimicry (imitation of 2 or more organisms) to mimic a sponge. It mimics imperfect sponges in order to seem realistic. It uses mimicry to avoid predation and eat possible prey disguised as a sponge. This called aggressive mimicry. It is located in the tropical and sub-tropical areas of the Atlantic and Pacific.
