Blue sea-monkeys are open to exploitation (7)
I believe the answer is:
useable
'open to exploitation' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'blue sea-monkeys' is the wordplay.
'blue sea' anagrams to 'USEABLE'.
But, I'm not sure how the anagram is indicated.
'are' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for useable that I've seen is " deployed".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
