The Red Sea stonefish is a small, venomous fish that hides among rocks and coral in warm, shallow sea water. Its grey, bumpy body looks like the stones around it, so it is easy to miss. Its dorsal spines carry venom, so it is important to know what it looks like.1

Anaishi
Red Sea and Persian Gulf, in the western Indian Ocean1
Bahari ya Hindi, Bahari ya Shamu, Bahari ya Arabia na Ghuba ya Uajemi
Nyumbani
It lives hidden among rocks and coral in shallow salt water, at depths between 3.5 and 18 metres. It prefers warmer water, roughly 26 °C to 30 °C.1

Jinsi ya kumtambua

  • Grey colour and dotting that match the stones and reefs around it1
  • Raised bumps, or warts, across its surface1
  • A slimy coating that lets algae and sand stick to its body as camouflage1
  • 14 dorsal spines, each with dark edges1
  • Grows up to 13.5 cm long1

Nguvu ya sumu

Miiba yenye sumu

Miiba mikali hubeba sumu. Kumkanyaga au kumshika kunauma.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

Its venom is a presynaptic neurotoxin, which disrupts nerve signals. The venom is released from glands when its erected dorsal spines are pressed with force.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Hatari kwa watu: MbayaMiiba yake ikikuchoma, nenda kwa daktari. Vifo ni nadra sana.

The Red Sea stonefish is hazardous to people because of the venom in its dorsal spines.1

Hufanya nini akiogopa?

When threatened, it erects its dorsal spines, and relies on its camouflage to stay hidden.1

Miiba yake ikikuchoma

  • Weka jeraha kwenye maji ya moto, moto kiasi ambacho mtu anaweza kuvumilia bila kuungua (pima kwanza kwa mkono wako), kwa dakika 30 hadi 90. Tafuta msaada wa kitabibu, hasa kwa samaki-jiwe na taa.

Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza

Kaa salama

  • Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
  • Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
  • Miiba yake ikikuchoma: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ukweli

1

When it feels threatened, it raises its dorsal spines. Venom flows out of glands when force is applied to the spines.1

2

Its venom is protein based, so cooking can break it down.1

3

Its slimy coat collects algae and sand, which helps it blend into the seabed.1

4

Sharks, rays and sea snakes prey on stonefish. Their venom may work less well against these predators.1

5

Close relatives are not used in the legal aquarium trade because they are so venomous, and handling them needs great care.1
