These are a reasonably common aquarium exhibit in Japan; small, well-camouflaged round fish with suckers on their bellies.

Perhaps worth mentioning that the "standard" lumpfish in Japanese aquariums is Eumicrotremus, which doesn't reach the size of the well-known Atlantic Cyclopterus (it and Aptocyclus are seen less frequently in Japanese aquariums).

I've seen some rather odd lumpfish exhibits in Japan, although the lumpfish+balloon still takes the price. (people unfamiliar with it can check this video)

Thanks!

Thanks for the link too. What a strange concept - although if at any of the big Tokyo aquaria, I'd have guessed that it was in Epson Aqua Park.
