I have read of several reports of Lionfish in Cozumel although I didn't see any in August when I was there, however I did spot one in Cancun last week while there for Christmas.
It was Dec 21st at 11:15 AM at a sight called Punta Negra a short distance off the coast of Punta Cancun were all the night clubs are.
I pointed it out to the DM and the other 2 divers with us but all they did was look at it. The next day though during the pre dive briefing they demonstrated a hand single for Lionfish along with the usual turtle, stingray, shark ect.... Put your palms of both hands together and open them like an alligators mouth and wiggle the fingers of your upper hand.
I did make out a report to REEF when I got home.
