On the channel side of the "Kiddie Pool" this particular porcupinefish didn't spook easily, but it just wouldn't come out to play.Thanks to my 2000 and new 2500 lumen underwater light, I was able to slip down into the crevice and meet it briefly.Thanks to the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute- Shorefishes of the Greater Caribbean online information system, i was finally able to rule out the Spotted Burrfish and confirm this is:Spot-Fin Porcupinefish (Diodon hystrix)St. Andrews State Park West Jetty- St. Andrews Bay Channel sidePanama City Beach, Bay County, Florida, USAOlympus OM-D E-M5 14-42mm II Lens PT-EP08 Underwater Housing, PPO-EP01 Lens PortSea Life Sea Dragon 2000 & Sea Dragon 2500 Underwater Light
DescriptionAPI A colleague's catch during a fishing expedition in Camiguin. Natives told him that this fish would make a yummy meal if cooked the right way. If not, this could be potentially potent as it is also regarded as a poisonous fish.
