Anglerfish

[Squishie89]

I am strongly considering setting up a 20L as an angler tank later this year. Either 1 or 2 anglers and I am thinking maybe a macro garden and rock.
My question right now is anyone who has kept these guys, what are their personalities like? Do they startle easy? I might put the tank in the kitchen area and it can get quite busy in there and I don't want to upset the fish.

Theres one at our local aquarium and it doesnt seem to be bothered at all by people. Sits in the same spot all day.

He didn't startle at all just pretty much sat around in random spots. If he got nervous he would walk to another spot in the tank. They are really fun fish i am more of a coral person and it is one fish I was truly upset about when it died.

Thank you so much! I totally forgot about that tank, I had looked at it a few months ago.
