Frogfish (Antennariidae) Picture of a Frog Fish I captured while diving in Kauai, Hawaii. The frog fish does not actually swim. It has a unique way of propelling itself by swallowing water and shooting it out. They can be hard to spot as they blend into their environment with camouflage but are interesting to watch.
