Spotted Boxfish
Feb 16, 2023
Swimming is hard, you know?
Whenever I see these boxfish it amazes me that they get along as well as they do. They always seem to be struggling with the whole swimming thing, especially when there's a bit of surge.
Spotted boxfish (Ostracion meleagris)
Their super power is producing a toxic slime through their skin that can kill other fish. They live in shallow reefs along the tropical Indo-Pacific and Eastern Pacific where they can be found poking in and around the coral looking for polyps, algae, small crustaceans, sponges, and misc. zooplankton to nibble on.
