No, anglerfish are not taught by their parents to catch food. After hatching, the young anglerfish are largely independent and must fend for themselves. They rely on their innate hunting skills and unique adaptations, such as their bioluminescent lures, to attract prey. Parental care is minimal, and anglerfish generally do not exhibit any form of social learning.
The anglerfish has stem attached to the tip of its head with a small mass of glowing bacteria on the end which lures fish into the anglerfish thinking its a smaller fish but they soon find out its a trap and get snapped up by the anglerfish.
instinct, smell, and they were taught food by their parents, and their parents before them.. in perpetuity.
The anglerfish moves by using its modified dorsal fin, called an esca, which acts as a lure. By wiggling the esca, the anglerfish attracts prey close enough to capture in its large mouth. The anglerfish is a slow swimmer and relies on its camouflage and lure to catch food.

None, it's ontop of the food chain.
The main food of the anglerfish is anything it can get to eat on the ocean floor because its a carnivore.
Phytoplankton to dragonfish to anglerfish to shark
it depends... Adults: well they just go out hunting(they catch their food and swallow( no chewing due to no teeth)) Babies (chicks): they wait for their parents, the parents regurgitate ( sick it back up) the food they have just caught and then put their beaks down the babies throats and pour in the food :)
Anglerfish are primarily positioned as predators in the marine food web. They occupy deeper oceanic regions and prey on smaller fish and invertebrates, using their bioluminescent lure to attract prey. As a result, they play a crucial role in controlling the populations of their prey species and are also a food source for larger predators, such as sharks and larger fish.
You catch food by setting traps to catch them. Other ways are by fishing, harvesting, and hunting for food.
