Valentinni’s Sharpnose Puffer | Canthigaster valentini

"Valentinni's Puffer Fish secrete a type of mucus, or slime, from their skin. This slime provides protection against parasites and infections and helps the Valentinni's Puffer Fish to move through the water faster. Some fish species also release toxins in their slime which ward off enemy attacks. Other fish species use their slime to feed their young."  -
