Looks like Sphoeroides spengleri, bandtail puffer.
Subtropical, said to get one foot, but most don't reach that size in nature. 5-6 inches is more common.

Thank you all for the information it is indeed a bandtail puffer, something i love about him is when he sleeps at night on top of the sand his back will change nearly completely white, i will post more pictures of him soon again thank you all
