Freckled Porcupinefish (Diodon holocanthus)
Is this the worlds cutest fish? 🐡
Freckled Porcupinefish (Diodon holocanthus)
Luckily for everyone on the planet, this porcupinefish has an enormous distribution and is found in every tropical ocean!
That cute little beak isn't just for smiling, but for breaking apart the shells of crustaceans and molluscs, their favourite food! It mainly hunts at night but can be found during the day at low-tide in rock pools.
When threatened, the porcupinefish will suck up water and inflate itself into a spiky balloon, making it difficult for predators to try and eat it!
