AmeriThai Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 It kind of looks like a grouper, but I'm not sure what kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farma Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Agreed definitely a puffer. Nearly identical to the Giant Puffer found in the Red Sea. Now I just need to remember who borrowed my Southeast Asia Tropical fish guide and didn't return it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenl Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) No, the fish is not dark enough for a Starry puffer (Todd, your latin and common names don't match BTW). Giant Puffer, Arothron Stellatus. Edited October 11, 2008 by stevenl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tw25rw Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Definitely not lunch, even for Thais I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
