Here we see a large, venomous Stonefish (Synanceia verrucosa). It has camouflaged itself deep in the sand to await passing prey. Stonefish are the most venomous fish in the world and can be lethal to humans. Coral reefs are the one of earths most complex ecosystems, containing over 800 species of corals and one million animal and plant species. The location is Ko Haa, Andaman Sea, Krabi, Thailand.

Ocean wart - this fish of the family Synanceiidae grows up to 27 cm. It lies motionless on the bottom for hours, waiting for prey. One of the world's most poisonous fish.

Synanceia verrucosa, the reef stonefish or simply stonefish, is a species of venomous, marine ray-finned fish,

$Synanceia verrucosa is a fish species, sometimes lethal to humans, which is known as the Reef Stonefish or simply Stonefish. The species occurs in the tropical Indo-Pacific from Red Sea to Queensland Australia in a depth range from 0-30m, max. length 40cm, common length 27cm. This carnivorous ray-finned fish species with venomous spines lives on reef bottoms, camouflaged as a rock. The Reef Stonefish is one of the most venomous known fish in the world. \nThe contours of this ambush hunter disappear between the corals. This sometimes ends fatally for the prey. \nLembeh Strait, Indonesia \n1°28'47.812 N 125°15'1.262 E at 6m depth$

$The Tassled Scorpionfish Scorpaenopsis oxycephala is a master of camouflage in highly variable colour and so a successful ambush perdator. He has 12 dorsal spines. The first in front is much shorter, the last is hidden in the fat layer. The species occurs in the tropical Indo-West Pacific from Red Sea to the Seychelles (Seychelles confirmed by own reseach) and to Taiwan and Guam in outer cleat-water reef slopes and channels in a depth range from shallow to 35m, max. length 36cm, common 30cm. \nTriton Bay, West Papua Province, Indonesia \n4°2'33.036 S 134°14'12.858 E at 5m depth$

$Papuan Scorpionfish Scorpaenopsis papuensis occurs in the tropical Pacific Ocean from Indonesia and the Philippines to the Society Islands, north to the Ryukyu Islands, south to the Great Barrier Reef and Fiji in a depth range from 1-40m, max. length 25cm, common 20cm. Scorpion fishes rarely swim, but rather move along the bottom propelling themselves with their fins. As ambush hunters, they use the camouflage as a hunting skill to prey on unsuspecting fish and invertebrates. Thanks to all the skin flaps, the outline of this specimen disappears almost completely, so it's much easier for this ambush predator to get his prey. \nLembeh Strait, Indonesia \n1°27'13.104 N 125°14'14.634 E at 24m depth$
