Anyone out there have pictures of the Sharpnose Puffer (Canthigaster rostrata) that they are willing to donate?

My picture was too big to post! Now, I am terrible at this, it was hard enough to get the darn thing from email to My Pictures, but now I have to figure out how to make it smaller and no button on my computer tells me how to do that, so I give up. Maybe later I can get hubby to do it for me. Sorry.

Didn't someone just post one under trip reports or maybe the photography section?

I took a look through my picture from my last trip. I found many shots of Sharpnose Puffer butts, but I also found this one.

They are all from Bonaire. Most of them from Buddy´s reef. I have date, some dive sites, but no depth of the pics. Tell me if I should mail some of them.

Feel free to use the one above. It was taken in about 20ft of water, south of Key Largo in Taveriener.

I want to know. These little guys are hard to catch on film. Shy, small, and usually out of focus for my part. I'm always pointing my lense that way, so tell us more Jenny.

The female sharpnose puffers defend a small territory within the larger territory of a haremic male. They ward off other females, but ignore juvenile fish. A male fish visits the female in her territory periodically throughout the day.
