| I am new to the salt water aquarium and have come across a fascinating fish, the flash light fish. Does any one know the care for these rare fish? Or even have any experience upon the species. Thank you. |

| Could you please send me a link describing the"Flashlight fish". Not doubting these exist just never heard of that fish in a marine tank. Any info would be appreciated. |

This site is the only site that has any infomation and has them in stock.
