Surely someone is going to second the Portugese Man o' War?
The Fish/Sea Mammals category is small.

this is what a box jellyfish can do

Blue ringed ocotopus?

you'll have to convince me on this

what is hard about it?

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Box Jelly Fish

Box jellyfish venom is the most deadly in the animal kingdom[citation needed] and has caused at least 5,568 recorded deaths since 1954

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Doh already in...

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

we could do with FOUR MORE sea beasts and SEVEN more lizards/amphibians as that'd make it even across the board

there must be some hard SNAKES or something?

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Snake Head fish...

It can kill entire Ponds and survive on land.

The snakehead fish has hit the United States.
* Survives icy winters and oxygen-deprived waters
* Grows to three feet
* Can crawl out of water, wiggle across land for four days
* Capable of clearing out a pond of all living creatures and then wriggling on to new hunting grounds on its belly and fins.
"If you catch it, kill it," said Bob Lunsford, biologist. "It's not a dead or alive thing, we want it dead."

 

[sam86]

you'll have to convince me on this

what is hard about it?

"Despite their small size and relatively docile nature, they are currently recognized as one of the world's most venomous animals."

Their venom paralyze's their victims.

"May bite attackers, including humans, if provoked or stepped on"

It can camouflage by using CELLS.

The females lay eggs only once, but lay 50 of the bastards, they then lay on them with their arms, for 6 months, without eating, and then die.

During mating, the female must force the male to stop, because he just can't get enough.

Oh, and just the fact we need more in the 'water' category. My next one may be a better choice though...

The green anaconda

shit the bed!

it's in

 

[sam86]

The CONE SNAIL.

Much like the blue ringed octopus, the cone snail poisons, and paralyzes it's prey.

All cone snail species are equipped with a battery of toxic harpoons which can fire in any direction, even backwards. Some of these toxins can be fatal to humans.

Oh, just watch...
