Summary
| Description |
English: The balloonfish (Diodon holocanthus) is usually a shy little fellow, who retreats to a safe hole in the reef to peak out warily. If they are startled, they inflate with water to make themselves look a lot bigger and more threatening. They are often encountered on night dives. |
