A Green-Eyed Monster... (48941560952)
Description:
Description: but not the jealous type. :-) I found this Balloonfish while diving at Bachelors Beach in Bonaire. The fish, also known as the "spiny puffer," was resting on top of a coral head and allowed me to take this macro closeup.. my strobe illuminating the green reflectors in its eyes. You can see the prickly quills that fish will defensively deploy if it feels threatened. Diodon holocanthus. Date: 3 October 2019, 16:42. Source: A Green-Eyed Monster...
