Lionfish are beautiful, but they're wreaking havoc on our reefs! These invasive fish will eat any fish that can fit into their huge mouths, meaning most baby reef fish don't stand a chance. Since they have no natural predators in the Caribbean, their numbers can grow unchecked. Luckily, they taste great to humans and they are often sought out by spearfishermen and ecologists alike, but care must be taken when fishing them to avoid their venemous spines!
