Sea apple
The sea apple is a round, colourful sea cucumber that lives in the warm waters of the Indo-Pacific. It filters tiny floating food from the water with its feathery tentacles. It is special because it can release a toxin into the water when it is stressed, which can harm other sea creatures nearby.1

Zer egiten du bere toxinak?
Sea apples release a toxic saponin called holothurin into the water when they are stressed. Saponin is a chemical that is harmful to other organisms. In aquariums, this toxin can poison other animals living nearby.1

Arriskua pertsonentzat: ArinaErle-ziztada bat bezala edo gutxiago. Ia kaltegabea pertsonentzat.Its toxin can poison other aquarium inhabitants, and this is one reason sea apples are not commonly kept in aquariums.1
Zer egiten du beldurtzen denean?
When disturbed, sea apples can violently push out their internal organs through their rear end, a process called evisceration. They can also release their toxin into the water.1
Norbaitek ukitu edo jan badu
- Sartu zauria ur beroan, pertsonak erre gabe jasan dezakeen bezain beroan, eta lortu mediku-laguntza arantzak kentzeko. Ez saiatu zuk zeuk ateratzen.
Deitu beti lehenik zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911). Lehen sorospenei buruzko orientabide orokorra da hau, ez mediku-aholkua. Lehen sorospenen oinarriak
Egon seguru
- Ez ukitu, ez harrapatu eta ez zirikatu inoiz animalia basati bat, txikia izan arren, eta lo edo hilda dagoela badirudi ere.
- Utzi tartea. Bat aurkitzen baduzu, egon lasai, egin atzera poliki eta utzi bere bidetik joaten.
- Ukitu edo jan baduzu: ez igurtzi begiak edo ahoa, garbitu eskuak eta lortu mediku-laguntza.
Ez dabil zure atzetik. Pozoia ezerk jan ez dezan baino ez du. Seguru egoteari buruz gehiago

Datuak
Sea apples can swell to nearly double their original size by drinking large amounts of seawater when threatened or in an unsuitable environment.1
Their swollen bodies let water currents carry them to a new area, which is much quicker than walking.1
In aquariums, sea apples often starve because plankton levels are lower than they need, and they try to feed in the daytime too.1
Hermit crabs and fish often peck at sea apple tentacles, either to eat them or to steal the food caught in them.1
Sea apples usually feed at night, when their delicate tentacles are less at risk from predators.1
Mito-hauslea
Mitoa: Sea apples are safe for reef aquariums.
Egia: Sea apples are considered reef safe for their compatibility with other species. However, they are unsafe for reef aquariums for other reasons, including starvation and the toxin they release.1
