Puffed GSPs, Showing Spikes and Beak (Warning)

Post by purplecandle »

Found this picture of puffer gsps on pinterest. Shows great detail of the spikes and of the teeth/beak.

Of course....they SHOULD NOT be out of the water like this. This is a sad picture. This picture represents something likely cruel. BUT, I thought this pic would come in handy when you need to show someone the teeth/beak or the spikes.

That looks like something someone made, not a live fish. Look how they're all puffed in a row.

Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day. Give a fish a man, and he'll eat for weeks.
