We were diving on a shallow wreck north of Bimini in the Bahamas yesterday and guess what showed up? A venomous fish that I thought for several decades only occurred in the Pacific.
No longer, the red lionfish apparently lacking natural predators has shown up at widespread locations along the east coast of the USA and in the Bahamas. Quite a few folks on here may have already known this however it was news to me on the reef.
I understand they have also been seen in Florida. What have folks encountered on here? Have you shot them when you have found them?
