Stone Fish

Stone fish: or the Synanceia verrucosa, also came from the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. Their size can grow up to 12 in., or 30 cm long.

Wow! I just read on the animal encyclopedia saying that those stone fish are a relative of the lion fish! So, that means they are poisonous as well! But unlike the lion fish, their "poison darts" are not their fins, but their sharp spines. If stepped on those sharp spines, the poison can inject enough dosage to kill a person. That means, they are one of the most dangerous fishes in the planet.

Its diet contains small shrimps/krills and fishes.

Another difference between a stone fish and a lion fish is their appearances, stone fish is very well camouflaged with its surroundings such as rocks and sand, while the lion fish is majestic in the fish kingdom.

PS. I challenge you to find the stone fish in the picture and tell me where you see the fish. Enjoy and have fun!
