In my opinion it's an usual, adult Auriglobus sp., likely A. modestus.

The larger Chonerhinos naritus has a yellow to bronze belly, while this one has a white belly like the Auriglobus.

Too bad the fins are blurry, they could definitely proove if my opinion is fact.

Still a really cool puffer to keep & not found often. It does need regular dentistry, although not as often as the SAP.
