And now, a keen diver has caught a video of a rare frogfish in action. The incredible video shows a frogfish moving along the sea bed in the water of Lembeh in Sulawesi, Indonesia.

Frogfish are a type of anglerfish that can be found around the world. The fish do not have scales, and instead have a textured exterior that helps them to camouflage and hide from predators.

In the video, the frogfish walks across the ocean floor, because the species lacks a swim bladder. This means that they use their modified pectoral fins to walk, or even gallop, across the seafloor.
Over the past 20 years Mr Sadai has been on over 1,000 dives in locations around the world. He said: 'Even though frogfish are rare I have seen them before, but I have never seen them walk in this way.
'I was amazed at the night diving in Lembeh, it's a rich ocean full of different things to see.'
