If anyone is wondering what's the difference between venomous and poisonous, just remember this:
If you bite it and you die, it's poisonous. If it bites you and you die, it's venomous

Nadale nadin ako ng box jelly fish na maliit at red color sa capones island zambales. Nakatayu lang ako ng bigla ko sya nakita sa bandang gilid ko first d ako nag panic at niningnan ko ng maiigi mula ulo gang galamay kc alam ko pag nag panic ako baka mas lalong lumapit sakin dahil sa alon. Nagulat ako ng umabot ng 2 meters ang galamay nya na kulay pula din kinabahan ako gang sa napansin ko habang hinahanap ko ang dulo ng galamay nya biglang dikit sa braso ko. Take note naka long sleeve ako pero ang kirot at nanlamig katawan ko na mahapdi na para akong nasusunog. Buti at dulo lang ang dumale sakin. Kung buong 2 meters na galamay yun baka wala narin ako.. ingat talaga guys. Ako ung taong bago mag swimming nagmmasid muna sq tubig pero hindi mo sila mapapansin ang payo ko lang e wag mag panic para minimal lang ang damage..

[@nelsonty6686]

TO ALL YOU PEOPLE OUT THERE -
Got stung by these bad boys twice when I was 8 & 14 years old. still alive hahaha
These creatures are almost invisible and impossible to detect unless you're looking from above the water.
The trick is when you accidentally hit their tentacles and get stung is to NOT MOVE AND IMMEDIATELY CLOSE YOUR EYES let the jelly fish pass by.
Because the more you move, the more you'll be spreading the tentacles hitting more skin area. Even worse if you're eyes are open you can possibly get blind if a tentacles hits you in the eye.
You basically swim carefully to the other direction or if you don't know where the jelly fish you just wait till the jelly wish swims away, they automatically do that when a bigger animal hits them.
Another important factor when you finally get out of the water you don't rub your skin because of the itch & pain, because that would only spread it even more.
Instead, you immediately try to remove the tentacles sticking on your skin because as soon as the sea water falls off your skin the tentacles is absorbed on your skin and this causes a lot of damage that takes weeks to heal once it pierces your skin. You need to be quick about this because it only takes a few seconds to happen. (THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT PART)
If you want to kill it, you just need to grab the head(avoid the tentacles) and lay it on the ground under the sun and it just melts away. Be careful where you place the tentacles, because even if they dried out already they can still reactivate once hit by sea water.
Also peeing on it is pretty much useless to be honest. You just need to remove the tentacles ASAP once you're out of the water.
FYI - Grew up living near the seat, (Our house is actually located by the sea) and we literally have these types of jellyfish in our own backyard.

I suspect many governments of the countries plagued by this jellyfish tend to downplay the risks, so as not to discourage tourism. This has already happened with Australia's northern coast. Two deaths from the Irukandji cost the tourist industry there 65 million dollars in lost business.

Sa aking kaalaman, nakakamatay po ang Salabay once na nakapasok sa loob ng katawan ng tao. Pero kung nalapatan ka lang sa part kung saan manipis yung balat ay sadyang masakit at mahapdi po ito, nag iiwan ng peklat mamamaga ng di tatagal ng isang araw. Mostly kinabukasan after masalabay eh mawawala na ang pamamaga. Minsan, nagkakapeklat na sya. So be careful nalang sa mga ganyan and also buhangin na tuyo ang ipahid sa affected area specially yung mainit init na buhangin kasi namamatay yung lason. Its based on my ancients belief HAHAHA hanggang sa kasalukuyan naman po.
