20 Octcute strange fishy thing

National Geographic has a really neat photo gallery of translucent creatures up on their website.  (Check it out here!)  While all of the photos were really cool, this is the only little guy who is also cute!!!   In the words of Dory, I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my Squishy!

A photographer’s strobe gives a violet sheen to this translucent juvenile roundbelly cowfish off the coast of Kona, Hawaii. Also known as the transparent boxfish, the roundbelly cowfish has two short horns in front of its eyes.
