This porcupinefish didn't spook easliy, but it just wouldn't come out of this crevice for a good look.With 4500 lumens to work with, I could at least shed a little light in there.

On the channel side of the "Kiddie Pool" this particular porcupinefish didn't spook easily, but it just wouldn't come out to play.Thanks to my 2000 and new 2500 lumen underwater light, I was able to slip down into the crevice and meet it briefly.Thanks to the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute- Shorefishes of the Greater Caribbean online information system, i was finally able to rule out the Spotted Burrfish and confirm this is:Spot-Fin Porcupinefish (Diodon hystrix)St. Andrews State Park West Jetty- St. Andrews Bay Channel sidePanama City Beach, Bay County, Florida, USAOlympus OM-D E-M5 14-42mm II Lens PT-EP08 Underwater Housing, PPO-EP01 Lens PortSea Life Sea Dragon 2000 & Sea Dragon 2500 Underwater Light
