Whitley’s Boxfish, Ostracion whitleyi, Hawai’i 2000

It is not often that you see the male Whitley’s Boxfish, but on June 24, 2000, I found one hiding in a crevice, and I got an extended video shot of him before he took off. I have included the entire clip since it is so infrequent that you get a chance to see the male. Conversely, the females are often seen while diving. This is an old 480 DV tape converted to 1080 after processing with Topaz Video AI.
