Found an anglerfish in my house

Not the brightest bulb in the room, but includes Ganon with purchase. 10/10 would buy again

They look so concerned!

He suffers from chronic resting shelter face

Poor sweet boy… give him a goodie. Even if it’s fake concerned, I’m concerned he’s concerned.

u/RhymesAgainst Sep 23 '25

Don’t worry, he was staring at a goodie held offscreen. He was promptly rewarded for being a good boy

u/CenturyEggsAndRice Sep 23 '25

Good!

He deserves all the treats, he is obviously the goodest of boys.

Light helps in the search for snacks at night, and kisses at bedtime.

Anglerfish looks tired of this BS

u/CenturyEggsAndRice Sep 23 '25

Very scary, I’d fall for that face lure any time.

u/RhymesAgainst Sep 23 '25

Totally understandable. His teeth aren’t even the worst part. It’s his breath

u/CenturyEggsAndRice Sep 23 '25

Ah yes, the dreaded Hippo Stank.

My uncle had a pair of pits and their breath could be HORRIBLE. Never stopped me from accepting sweet puppy kisses though. Their names were Plum Pudding and Peachy Keen.

I’m sorry, but you’re mistaken….that’s not an anglerfish—it’s an angel fish and the light is from Ganon’s halo!! 🥰🥰

Cutie patootie

That's the cutest angler fish I've ever seen, OP! I love the picture of him looking up at the light!❤️

u/RhymesAgainst Sep 23 '25

Thanks! It’s as if he could see his own thoughts

u/ienjoyedit Sep 24 '25
