Lion

I see you requested "Lionfish", but that's not a species, it is a genus. You have to be more specific in which kind of Lionfish this is. Posted 11 years ago

The Red lionfish

The red lionfish is a venomous coral reef fish in the family Scorpaenidae, order Scorpaeniformes. "P. volitans" is natively found in the Indo-Pacific region, but has become a huge invasive problem in the Caribbean Sea and along the East coast of the United States along with a similar species, "Pterois miles".
