Rainbow Tripod Fish/information on juvenile tripod fish
[edit]I've seen an image of a juvenile tripod fish called the "rainbow tripod fish". This name is only ever used to refer to the juveniles and I can't find any research connecting the rainbow tripod fish to a specific species of adult tripod fish. The Wikipedia page for "Bathypterois grallator" comes up in searches but the page itself doesn't recognize this nickname or the juvenile form. The most popular image that is being spread around is from Frida Yolotzin, a deep-sea photographer in Mexico. Is anyone able to identify the rainbow tripod fish and add it to the page of its corresponding species? Is it possible that rainbow tripod fish is a translation from a Spanish common name?
