A new diver at the Blue Heron Bridge recently photographed this thing and posted it in the bridge thread. Looks more like a toadfish, to me, than a scorpionfish or barbfish. Anybody know what it is?

Maybe it's a juvenile Batfish?
 
it is a scorpionfish, i think it might be a melanistic spotted scorpionfish

A Google Image search convinced me that I'll just have to take yer word for it. :) Thanks.
