More about Hawaiian spotted puffer
The Hawaiian spotted puffer (Canthigaster jactator) is a small, brightly colored fish predominantly found in the marine waters around Hawaii. It exhibits a distinctive pattern of blue and white spots across its body, which is a characteristic trait of the species. This pufferfish is relatively small in size and has a typical pufferfish body shape, with a large head and eyes, and a compact, rounded body. Despite its striking appearance, it is not among the most popular species in the aquarium hobby, partly due to its specific care requirements and potential to release toxins when stressed.
