A Portuguese man of war has no legs, as all cnidarians lack legs. A Portuguese man of war has several dozen, very long tentacles, the number depending on how many feeding polyps it has. The closely related, and very similar-looking Blue Bottle tends to have only one, very long tentacle, with a cluster of shorter tentacles.
