What is the most poisonous fish in the world? In this video i will be answering that question and more. There are many poisonous fish in the worlds oceans which can be very dangerous to humans. The fugu pufferfish is one of the most poisonous fish in the world and can be very dangerous to eat if not prepared properly. There is a big difference between poisonous fish and venomous fish and I will be going through the differences in this video.

For our first toxic fish we will be heading to japan as we have the fugu puffer fish. Takifugu is a genus of pufferfish that has 25 members and all of these members are poisonous and can only be prepared by the most skilled of chefs. Despite the danger of eating a poisonous fish such as the fugu puffer fish it is still a very popular food fish in Japan.

For our next toxic fish we will be heading into the deepest parts of the ocean as we have the orange roughy. The orange roughy is a deep sea predatory fish and as it lives in colder water it has a very slow metabolism it can live to be over 200 years old. It may surprise a lot of you that the orange roughy is on this list as it is a popular food fish in many countries. The danger of eating this fish comes from the high amount of mercury in their bodies but if eaten responsibly is completely safe.

For our next poisonous fish we will be staying in the deep oceans as we have the oilfish. the oilfish is another deep sea predatory fish. The oil fishes flesh is not toxic but can cause digestive issues and medical problems as the oils in the flesh cannot be properly digested.

For our next poisonous fish we will be heading to the temperate and tropical oceans as we have the trunkfish. Trunkfish are close relatives to the toxic puffer fish and file fishes and like the fugu pufferfish they have the potential to be very dangerous. Trunkfish can excrete a harmful mucus that is able to damage any fish in the area. Trunkfish are also very dangerous to eat.

For our final toxic fish we will head over to the tropical reefs as we have the moray eel. Moray eels are very unique creatures and come in many different shapes and sizes but moray eels also contain a very harmful toxin in their organs that can prove fatal to humans. Moray eels can be safe to eat if you avoid the toxins in their organs.

What fish do you think is then most toxic?
