Beautiful, exotic and with a voracious appetite the lionfish is an invasive specie in the Atlantic Ocean. Lionfish are able to wipe out a whole reef; they can decrease the population of fish in a reef by 80% and are eating the juvenile fish of many important commercial species such as grouper and snapper. If we don't start working towards finding a solution now then this invasion will get much bigger and worse; it will affect the marine ecosystem in a negative way, will create a dent in our economy and will cause for many people to lose their jobs. Tell dive centers to start selling lionfish before it's too late!!!
