Not the best quality picture but it introduces this awesome species of triggerfishes. They are always far in the blue and is difficult to approach them. They are also in less deep water for nesting purposes, then they migrate back into the deep ocean.
''Canthidermis maculata'', also known as rough triggerfish or spotted oceanic triggerfish, is a species of triggerfish native to the tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide. Unlike most triggerfish, they are mostly pelagic.
In the Philippines, it is locally called as ''Tikos'' in the Cebuano language and is abundant in the Visayas and Mindanao island groups.
