Yes indeed we have a terrible problem here but is compensated now is possible to eat this fish and the population is getting more regular thanks to the demand of the fish :)

Yes, I understand that the lion fish is a serious intruder there in the Caribbean!

Is really amazing no one really knows the spread on this guys only 20% of the nudibranchia are ID so maybe some of the ones you have are possible unknown. Is amazing like the lionfish now we have it in the Caribbean.
