Correction:Yes. Purely aquatic phylae (like Coelenterata or Cnidaria) members that use toxins to hunt or for protection generally create toxins that are far more interesting than terrestrial toxins, and sea anemones are no exception.While rarely a problem for humans, there is still an effect. The anemone toxin(s) ATX, are a stew of various compounds. It works mostly by (permanently?) blocking the sodium channel in neuroconductivity (Anemonia sulcata), and other species attack the calcium channel as well as (sometimes) inciting hemolysis. Up to 4 separate toxins, neurotoxins and a cytolysin, have been identified so far, and we aren't done.
While again, most sea anemones do not deliver enough toxin to endanger humans(A. sulcata is an exception), the toxin itself is quite lethal in sufficient dosage.
To close, I would point out that the marine biologists, MacGinnitie and MacGinnitie point out that you can touch your tongue to the stinging tentacles of Anthopluera elegantissima and feel your tongue go numb. I've never tried this and suggest you don't either, for reasons as per above :}/

Conclusion about the poison dart frog?
Poison dart frogs, as their name suggests, secrete a poison through their skin. The poison functions like an acid, seeping through skin and affecting neural activity. As a result of their powerful poison, the frogs have no animal predators (except for humans). Sadly, the poison dart frog is threatened by a fungus called chytrid fungus, which may be the only living thing that lives on poison dart frogs. The fungus blocks the frog's skin, suffocating it. Poison dart frogs are now extinct in the wild.
