Grey triggerfish (Balistes capriscus)


When threatened, these distinctively shaped fish can slip into a small crevasse and erect their front dorsal spine, which locks it onto place, wedging them firmly into their hiding spot. They have sharp teeth for cutting into hard-shelled prey like sea urchins and starfish. They range from light- to olive- to brown-grey, with some banding, and can adjust their color to blend into their surroundings.
