Physalia, commonly known as the Portuguese man o' war, is a marine organism that resembles a jellyfish but is actually a colony of specialized polyps. It has a distinctive floating blue or pinkish gas-filled bladder that sits above the water and stinging tentacles that can reach up to 165 feet in length. Physalia is found in warm, tropical waters and uses its tentacles to capture prey and defend itself against predators.
Elements on the periodic table that display some characteristics of metals and some characteristics of nonmetals are categorized as metalloids. Examples of metalloids include silicon, germanium, and arsenic. They have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
The three characteristics of color are hue (the actual color), value (the lightness or darkness of a color), and saturation (the intensity or purity of a color).

Special characteristics of materials include conductivity (ability to conduct heat or electricity), magnetism (ability to be attracted to or repelled by a magnet), hardness (resistance to scratching or deformation), and ductility (ability to be stretched without breaking). These characteristics determine how a material can be used in various applications and industries.

Portuguese Man of War- Animalia Cnidaria Hydrozoa Siphonophorae Physaliidae Physalia physalis Indo-Pacific blue bottle- Animalia Cnidaria Hydrozoa Siphonophorae Physaliidae Physalia utricalus Recent molecular studies show that there are likely a handful of physalia species, however a new complete global review of the genus will be required to resolve the issue. Currently, the only species recognized by both the US Interagency Taxonomic Information System (ITIS) and World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) is Physalia physalis. However, the majority of recent scientific papers concede that P. utricalus is a distinct species from P. physalis.
They eat fish and crustaceans
It is a Physalia physalis.

Physalia, also known as the Portuguese man o' war, has a gas-filled float or pneumatophore that allows it to float on the surface of the ocean. This float is made up of a chitinous material with a high percentage of gas, which provides buoyancy to keep the Physalia afloat.

Nothing, you just feel like you burnt yourself. I was stung by one when i was about 5 or 6 years old.
