Dog faced or black spotted puffer, Arothron nigropunctatus. Also sometimes called the hush puppy puffer.

No it's fine, the fish is resting on the bottom and has folded its caudal and curved the peduncle into an arc. This is quite characteristic for a puffer: I have lots of photos of the dwarf puffers I used to keep in similar poses, even when they were spawning.
The caudal fin has been nibbled quite badly at the top, but it will probably regrow.
