seaslugThe Orange Seaslug lives on a coral reef.  The orange color says, "Don't touch" to other fish.  It likes to eat the stinging tentacles of the sea anemone.  It coats them with a special mucus that makes it so he can swallow it safely.  They taste icky to other fish.  If the predator tries to eat him, then he will spit him back out.
lionfish

The Lionfish lives on reefs in the Indian and Pacific oceans.  It is a very dangerous fish because it has sharp spines that can give wounds to other fish or people.  And sometimes they inject poison into the wounds.  The Lionfish uses its net system to catch other fish.  It spreads its side fins and drives the fish into a corner where it catches them.

pufferfishThe Puffer fish can blow up into a big balloon.  He does this by pumping water into his stomach, which expands nearly 100 times its normal size.  The Puffer's stomach is made with pleats.  As it stretches, its spiny armor snaps into an upright position.  Nothing can swallow it when it is like a spiny balloon.
