Most venomous fish

Stonefish are the most venomous fish known. They inhabit the coastal regions of the Indo-Pacific ocean. With texture skin and a mottled colouring, they blend in perfectly with the corals and rocks on which they lie waiting to ambush their prey. Their spines contain a powerful neurotoxin that target cellular membranes.
