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

Anadunga sumu au ana sumu ya kugusa? Wanyama wanaodunga sumu huingiza sumu kwa kuuma au kudunga. Wanyama wenye sumu ya kugusa au kula hudhuru wakiguswa au kuliwa. Huyu ni wa aina ya pili.

Kuogelea, makadirio

Hula nini?

Sea apples feed mainly on plankton, which they filter from the water with their tentacles. They bring each tentacle to the mouth in turn and scrape off the trapped plankton.1

Nguvu ya sumu

Sumu akiliwa

Ni hatari tu kitu kikimla.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

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

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Its toxin can poison other aquarium inhabitants, and this is one reason sea apples are not commonly kept in aquariums.1

Hufanya nini akiogopa?

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

Mtu akimgusa au kumla

Weka jeraha kwenye maji ya moto, moto kiasi ambacho mtu anaweza kuvumilia bila kuungua, na utafute msaada wa kitabibu kuondoa miiba. Usiichokonoe mwenyewe.

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.
Ukimgusa au kumla: usisugue macho wala mdomo, nawa mikono na utafute msaada wa kitabibu.

Hakuwindi wewe. Sumu yake ipo tu ili asiliwe na yeyote. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ukweli

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

Kuvunja dhana potofu

Dhana potofu: Sea apples are safe for reef aquariums.

Ukweli: 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
