Description
The exotic Lionfish is a well-known and frequent resident of a home aquarium.
Some folks tossed their former pets into the sea. But it turned out that lionfishes are prolific breeders and have become a very successful invasive species in Southeast and Caribbean coastal waters. They have no known predators, except humans - but, I'm told, they are delicious.
Photographed at Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California San Diego.
