Male anglerfish are significantly smaller than their female counterparts. Typically, they measure about 2 to 5 inches (5 to 13 centimeters) in length. In contrast, females can grow up to 12 inches (30 centimeters) or more. This size difference is part of their unique reproductive strategy, where males often fuse to females for mating.
