The spotted scorpionfish is a venomous fish that lives in the Atlantic Ocean. It hides on shallow coral reefs and rocky seabeds, where it waits, almost still, for small fish and crustaceans to come close. Its back spines carry venom, so it is one to keep well away from.1

It is an ambush predator. It camouflages itself, waits until prey is in a good position, then uses its large mouth as a vacuum to suck the prey in quickly. Its prey includes fishes and crustaceans.1

The spines on the back inject venom that contains cardiotoxins, which cause a drop in blood pressure and in heart and breathing rates. Symptoms include excruciating pain at the site, followed by swelling, redness and occasionally skin death. Other symptoms include nausea, vomiting, agitation, sweating, irregular heartbeat, difficulty breathing and severe low blood pressure.1

The spines can pose a danger to humans.1

E etsang ha e tshohile?

When threatened, it spreads its pectoral fins and shows a bright colour, while venom glands at the base of its dorsal spines defend it against predators.1
