Cnidarians obtain food by using stinging cells to catch they're food or prey.

How: well, When the stinging cell touches the prey, this threadlike structure explodes out of the cell and into the prey. Some stinging cells also release venom into they're prey. When the prey becomes helpless, the cnidarian uses its tentacles to pull the prey into its mouth. From there, the prey passes into a hollow central body cavity, where it is digested. Undigested food is expelled through the mouth.
