Our family was at the Monterey Bay Aquarium a week or two ago, and at one point Anna said, "Hey that's the fish from Fish Tycoon!". And it really was! It looked just like a Spotanus. I *think* it was in a tank in their seahorse exhibit, but I couldn't see anything saying what kind of fish it was. Anyone know??

I went to the Monteray Bay Aquarium's website and it sounds like you saw a Pajama Cardinalfish! grin It does look exactly like the Spotanus, nice find!

grin Your welcome!

I went to the exhibits section of the website and looked at the seahorse section.. couldn't find any pictures of some Spotanus-lookalikes so I listened to the podcast and it mentioned the pajama cardinalfish!

Oh how I love playing a detective, lol

Nice find, smile. Yes, I see it now. In the podcast:

Beyond seahorses: A cast of colorful characters are in our new exhibit.

The picture for that podcast is a pajama cardinalfish!
