Lion Fish 36
Lionfish are native to the Indo-Pacific, but are now established along the southeast coast of the U.S., the Caribbean, and in parts of the Gulf of Mexico and have become a serious invasive problem to the Atlantic coastal ecosystem.
Lion Fish 37
Since lionfish are not native to Atlantic waters and since they have venomous spines that can be very painful they have very few predators. They are carnivores that feed on small crustaceans and fish, including the young of important commercial fish species such as snapper and grouper.

Though interesting to look at, this invasive specie (as well as other non-native invasive species) are capable of causing extinctions of native plants and animals, reducing biodiversity, competing with native organisms for limited resources, and altering habitats.

How did the fish get to the Atlantic? While the exact cause is unknown, it's likely that humans provided a helping hand. Experts speculate that people have been dumping unwanted lionfish from home aquariums into the Atlantic Ocean for up to 25 years. Marine invaders are nearly impossible to eradicate once established. That is why it is highly illegal to release non-native species into the wild, the results are most often disastrous to the native ecosystem.
