Have you ever seen a lionfish up close before?
The are a strikingly beautiful and exotic looking fish that looks like it belongs in a fancy salt water aquarium…
However, these fish are cold-blooded, venomous, predatory killers!
They kill off fish communities (eating other fish in one bite), disrupting habitats all over Florida, stinging things with their venomous spiky fin rays, and causing nothing but mischief.
In fact, it is probably the only fish that the state of Florida it basically telling angler to “kill/harvest” as many as possible…
One main reason is that besides this brave grouper in the video, Lionfish don’t have many natural predators…
And the female lionfish can carry up to 15,000 eggs!!!
So you can understand how quickly they can take over and dominate an underwater habitat.
But in this video, the grouper gets the last laugh on the lionfish.
Lionfish eating Grouper = Salt Strong
