Description
That's all I could think of that this little cute fish is swimming up to give me a kiss !!! :)
I am not sure, I been looking at few pictures and it looks similar to The web burrfish, Chilomycterus antillarum, only its only baby one, but don't quote me on it !!
Striped burrfish are important predators of tropical shellfish, including conchs, whelks, oysters, quahogs, and also have been known to feed on barnacles and small fish.
Like a pufferfish, striped burrfish have the ability to pull water or air into their bodies, expanding far beyond its normal size is an effort to deter predators. Striped burrfish fall into a family of spiny puffers or boxfish that have small, rigid, erectile spines that remain standing straight up all the time.
