I think this is a boxfish or trunkfish
could be a Spotted Trunkfish (Lactophrys bicaudalis)
but I am not very sure on that, my book on coral reef
fishes does not cover all species.
Box fish are related to puffer fish, but they do not inflate
themselves but are protected by a shell of bony plates.

I assume you made these pictures in an aquarium
what film, shutter speed etc. did you
use to make these pictures? Did you use a flash?
My attempts always stranded on low light levels.

Hi Martin,

Thank you, your right! I was able to barrow a fish "field guide" and
the image does look like a young Spotted Trunkfish.
Few of the animals I photograph I know well and I appreciate you (and
others) correcting me when I've misidentified a species!

The photos were taken at the National Aquarium in Washington, D.C. The
oldest aquarium in the U.S.

I used 400 speed print film, shutter speed not noted, aperture was F8,
and I used a flash.
Here's the two techniques I use for shooting through glass:

1) Position the camera lens as close as possible to the aquarium glass.
2) Use a off-camera flash unit to insure that the angle of reflectance
is greater that 2.5?.

Thanks,

John
