Here are a few shots of this remarkable fish....Notice how hard he is to see....He flinched just a bit!!!

Great photos! He certainly is well camoflauged! In some of the shots, it looks like he has a human skull sculpted in the top of his head.

Yeah, I see it.....

That really is a wild looking fish! Great pics as always!

Thanks.... They find one off of Kona's coast about every five years...so I feel real lucky to say the least!!!!

That is wild, it never ceases to amaze my ow critters have evolved to fit so well into their surroundings

How awesome to see something so rare!

I couldn't stop looking at those pics! That is an amazing creature and he has a look on his face, doesn't he? What an expression, I'm not sure who was more surprised and he doesn't look too happy. It does look like a human skull on top of his head.

Great shots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! Amazing!! Wonderful pictures

Yes, I would agree....he does have a look on his face....I will tell you I was probably the more surprised but he also looks a bit taken a back also!!!

Hey Reefman,

You ever find anything while diving like small fish or corals that you bring home for your tank?

Just curious.

wow didnt realize how big they get

All I can say Ron,is that you truly take some awesome pics.Could you imagine swimming up and seeing him face to face? He's a beauty in an odd sort of way.

That is awesome to see them in the wild. You can never believe how big these creatures get until you see them in the wild. Jenny and I did that in the Sea of Cortez with porcupine puffers. All we could say was Wow!

I know what you mean man.....it is a different story in the wild for sure!!!!

The puffers do get big....here are a few shots of puffers that I came accross...

beautiful pictures Reef Man
