Venomous Indo-Pacific lionfish (Pterois miles and P volitans) are now established along the Southeast U.S.A. and parts of the Caribbean and pose a serious threat to reef fish communities of these regions. Lionfish are likely to invade the Gulf of Mexico and potentially South America in the near future. Introductions of lionfish were noted since the 1980s along south Florida and by 2000 lionfish were established off the coast of North Carolina. Lionfish are now one of the more numerous predatory reef fishes at some locations off the Southeast U.S.A. and Caribbean. Lionfish are largely piscivores that feed occasionally on economically important reef fishes. The trophic impacts of lionfish could alter the structure of native reef fish communities and potentially hamper stock rebuilding efforts of the Snapper-Grouper Complex. Additional effects of the lionfish invasion are far-reaching and could increase coral reef ecosystem stress, threaten human health, and ultimately impact the marine aquarium industry. Control strategies for lionfish are needed to mitigate impacts, especially in protected areas. This book provides a general overview of the biology and ecology of lionfish including genetics, taxonomy, reproductive biology, early life history and dispersal, venom defence and predation, and feeding ecology. In addition, alternative management actions for mitigating the negative impacts of lionfish, approaches for reducing the risk of future invasions, and directions for future research are provided.

Why Cook Lion fish? Lion fish are native to the Pacific, Indian Ocean and the Red Sea. Unfortunately, they have found their way into the Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. Experts believe that the cause of the lion fish invasion is the dumping of unwanted lion fish from aquariums into the Atlantic for over 2 decades. Lion fish have no natural predators in these waters and are ferocious predators themselves, like vacuum cleaners that suck the life out of the ocean. The invasive lion fish are a very real threat to our coral reefs and ecosystems. They breed rapidly, releasing 15-20,000 eggs every 4 days and even the larvae have few predators! They eat juvenile fish and cleaners such as shrimp, that keep reef fish free from parasites. They are feeding on our key species such as juvenile parrot fish, algae and coral fight for photosynthesis. The parrot fish help keep the coral alive by feeding on the bad algae. If the algae smother the reef, the coral will die and there is no chance of recovery. It is estimated that marine plants produce between 70-80% of the oxygen that we need in order to survive. Without coral reefs, life as we know it cannot exist. The “eat em to beat em” campaign was launched by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in 2010 to encourage a seafood market as a means of mitigating the species’ impact on reef communities. In 2003, Polly Alford founded a conservation diving organisation in Belize. She encountered her first lion fish in 2009 and was subsequently shocked by the rapid invasion. Her organisation introduced a project to remove them, collect data and create local and national awareness. In 2016 Polly decided to enroll her twin sister, Claire (a chef in the UK) in a project to combine their skills and write a lion fish cookbook. The objective was to write easy to follow recipes using lion fish, to create tasty dishes for home cooking. The recipes in this book demonstrate the versatility of this fish and the good news is that lion fish is not only delicious but also high in omega 3. We wrote this book to encourage you to cook one of the most sustainable foods available whilst helping to reduce this potentially catastrophic environmental problem.

"Lionfish (Pterois volitans/miles complex) are venomous coral reef fishes from the Indian and western Pacific oceans that are now found in the western Atlantic Ocean. Adult lionfish have been observed from Miami, Florida to Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, and juvenile lionfish have been observed off North Carolina, New York, and Bermuda. The large number of adults observed and occurrence of juveniles indicate the lionfish are established and reproducing along the southeast United States coast"--Executive summary.

The Lionfish hails from the tropical, warm waters of the Indian and South Pacific Oceans. They have featured in marine tanks for many years thanks to their beauty and ability to adapt well to tank life. There are no fewer than 12 species to delight the aquarist and the Lionfish is very popular despite the fact that it is venomous. This book will introduce you to these fish by looking at the different species, discussing their appearance and biology, typical Lionfish behaviour, their feeding requirements and what makes these attractive fish both fascinating and unique. You will also find out what you need to know in order to decide whether or not this is the pet for you and, if it is, where to buy one, how to select your Lionfish, what you need to buy before you bring it home and how to take proper care of it. The hobbyist must know what these fish need with regards to their environment. All the necessary equipment and water and other parameters are examined as the quality of the water and the general environment has a crucial bearing on the health and happiness of Lionfish. Despite being hardier than most fishes, the Lionfish is susceptible to a number of bacterial, parasitic and fungal infections and infestations. Anyone who is serious about having a marine tank needs to know what to look for and how to deal with common fish ailments. There is also advice on how to avoid being stung and what to do in the event of a sting. Other areas of discussion are the fish and marine creatures that the Lionfish gets on with. It's important to only combine species that are compatible so you don't have to deal with aggression and bullying between fish. There is also discussion of suitable companion invertebrates that could share the tank with the fish. Covered in this book: - Do's and Don't's - The basics - Choosing the right fish - Social behaviour - Buying - Equipment needed - Setting up the aquarium - Water & other parameters - Introduction to other creatures into the tank - Daily care - Feeding - Health - Breeding - Prices and costs ..... and much more
