A man-of-war fish, (Nomeus gronovii), living within the deadly tentacles of the The Portuguese man o' war (Physalia physalis), also known as the man-of-war, a marine hydrozoan.

The smaller gonozooids do not seem to sting the fish and the fish is reported to frequently "nibble" on these tentacles. Dominica, Caribbean Sea, Atlantic Ocean.
