Histrio histrio – Predatory Sargassum Fish

Histrio histrio, commonly known as stonefish, is a solitary predatory fish with impressive camouflage. Native to floating tropical sargassum zones, this fish specializes in ambush hunting, waiting motionless for prey to come within reach and swallowing it in a fraction of a second.

A Formidable Camouflaged Hunter

Thanks to its irregular skin and skin outgrowths, it blends perfectly with its environment, mimicking algae and floating debris. Its stocky body and prominent jaw make it a formidable predator, capable of swallowing prey almost as large as itself.

For Specific Aquariums Only

Histrio histrio is incompatible with small fish, shrimp, or fragile invertebrates that it considers food. It is recommended to keep it in a specific tank or with robust, non-preyed upon species. Its solitary behavior makes it a calm but territorial fish.

Maintenance Conditions

  • Minimum recommended volume: 100 liters
  • Temperature: 24°C to 28°C
  • pH: 8.0 to 8.4
  • Behavior: solitary, predatory, motionless during the day
  • Compatibility: incompatible with small fish and invertebrates

Feeding

  • Live or frozen fish (appropriate size)
  • Thawed shrimp or crustaceans
  • Protein-rich meaty foods

This fish should receive a meaty diet suited to its large mouth. It is possible to condition it to accept thawed food offered with tweezers.

Why Choose Histrio histrio?

  • Fish with spectacular camouflage
  • Fascinating hunting behavior
  • Solitary and inactive, not demanding in space
  • To be kept in a specific tank
