Aquarium Fish: Leaf Scorpionfish (Taenianotus triacanthus)
By Pavaphon Supanantananont
The leaf scorpionfish is a reef safe fish that can be kept in reef tank
with no harm to corals. But it is a threat to mobile inverts like
shrimps and crabs, including much smaller fishes. It is best kept in
peaceful community tank or a small reef tank that does not contains
aggressive or picky fishes like triggers and Butterflyfish.
