Stonefish at Tulamben dive

The stonefish was nearly overlooked due its camouflage. When I passed it changed its colour in a few seconds.
Having excellent camouflage capabilities, the stonefish can be difficult to notice. It’s often exciting to spot the most disguised critters when diving we've to remember to take notice of what’s hiding in the rocky seafloor or coral.
Stonefish will not go out of their way to attack, rather use their poison as a defence mechanism against predators. The venom is usually released when pressure is applied to the stonefish’s spine, which means the poison is most often emitted when the stonefish is being attacked by a predator or stepped on by a diver. If for whatever reason a diver accidentally steps on a stonefish, seek immediate treatment as the venom can cause severe pain, heart failure and even death if left untreated.
