Credit 📽 @underwatervideoguide HONEYCOMB COWFISH!!!! This fish has the ability to change colors in order to protect themselves from predators! See how dark the honeycomb pattern is in the beginning? Watch the fish change to a lighter color as it back up over the exposed sandy area!!! The Cowfish gets its name from the 2 horns on top if its head, and of course the honeycomb pattern on its side. The horns serve as a means of protection. The Honeycomb Cowfish are usually solitary fish. The really cool pattern helps blend into the reef. You'll notice the fish is darker next to the reef to help blend in and confuse any predators. The way the fish swims is really entertaining and makes a fun video to watch. You can normally get pretty close to them before they dart off to find protection in the reef. #honeycombcowfish #cowfish #boxfish #reeffish #uwvideo #scubadivinglife #floridascuba #3pointturn #instadive #tropicalfish #tropicaldiving #honeycomb #coolpattern #uwvideo #reeflife #reef #floridafish #oceanlife #marinelife #aninalpattern #amazingfish #coralreeffish https://www.instagram.com/p/By7KSTeFZ-m/?igshid=1ntvludm6ngs7
