• Cover and cook at 190°C for 15 minutes.
• Baste with a little white wine and allow it to evaporate.
• Remove from the oven, slice and place on a bed of mashed potatoes.
• Add the chopped fresh parsley to the cooking juices and pour over the fish.

Fish That Can Stay In The Same Tank

Sure, you cannot keep active predators in a small tank, but those fish wouldn't work anyway since they'd always steal the frogfish's food. Certain small, slow ambush predators such as dwarf lionfish and waspfish, however, are appropriate tankmates since they have similar feeding requirements.
