Identification suggestions (from the community or from AI) and the information here may be wrong; this app never confirms that anything is safe to eat. Do not consume wild plants, mushrooms or seafood without expert confirmation. Nothing here is medical advice.
Venomous spines like the black scorpionfish, and being larger it drives them deeper. Do not handle bare-handed; cut the spines off. Treat stings with hot water and seek medical care.
