I am still working on identifications from six weeks ago. I saw the picture of this fish and immediately thought filefish, but I could not find a match on the DVD. So, I went page by page through "Reef Fish," and toward the end, I came upon a sharpnose puffer. Is that what this is?
April 5, 2011, St. Vincent, depth 56 feet, bottom temperature 79 degrees Fahrenheit.
Thank You,
Marty
Sharpnose Puffer
A tough picture to work with, but yes this is a Sharpnose Puffer.
I apologize
I apologize for the lack of quality of the photo. I did my best in Photoshop, but I did not have much to work with.
Thank you for your identification.
Marty
