Can anyone help me identify this fish .. seen in Fiji .. (click to visit the photo in my webshots album)
Identification .. blue/black puffer ? or boxfish ?
OK, Probably a boxfish then :) thanks
Similar shape to these guys, wasn't sure about the mouth, and the markings .. but male and female are different, so who knows what the juveniles look like!
