A word of caution

Although this toxin gives the coral an anti-cancer immune response, when entering our body, it can cause cells to shut down and can cause severe eye and skin irritation. Therefore, here at the coral house, we highly recommend you treat this beautiful coral with caution and handle it wearing gloves especially if you have a cut or open wound. Furthermore, wear spectacles always when fragging this coral.
