So, the box jellyfish, it's quite substantially large fish, and the venom cuts and where they go from prawn larvae up to something like fish as they get much larger. So don't run to these guys. So, the less endearing qualities of them, some of them are deadly, and there's actually a picture up here. Venom coming out of the stings. One of these guys and really I guess to use the current vernacular, it's a wicked problem of how she managed these particular jellyfish and hopefully not in Sydney in the near future.

The true Stinger is a is a boxy shape, but each base of the tentacle have multiple tentacles coming out of that. So that distinguishes the different types of groups.
