Taste: Once the venomous spines have been removed from the body, cooked lionfish possesses a slightly sweet flavor, reminiscent of grouper and snapper. Lionfish are thus one species you can always feel good about eating when you see it on a menu. Females can lay up to 15,000 eggs at a time, helping these invasive fish pretty much take over the whole world (minus their native Indo-Pacific Ocean). No matter what you call it though, lionfish are a venomous, invasive species that threaten delicate underwater ecosystems with their insatiable appetites and spines that can cause anaphylactic shock. It is one of the most often caught fish in our fishing programs. Present in Park: Commonly found in the Mississippi River. Coloration is gray with purple/bronze reflection and rounded triangular tail. It has a humped back with a long, sloping forehead and white lips. Except for the places that call it a zebrafish. Key ID Features: Freshwater drum average 10-14 inches in length.
Though their scientific name is actually Pterois, this stunner is colloquially known the world over as the lionfish. #lionfish #beautiful #saturday #divenowworklater #ilovemyjob #instructor #life #underwaterphotography #smallstuff #bigstuff #fish #arches #dhigurah #maldives #southariatoll #maldives #comedivewithme #vitaminsea #islandlife #paradise #nopainnogain #eid #eidmubarak #olympus #tg4 #wanderlust #away #bbdivedhigurah #memyselfandi #whenlifebecomestoshortforhashtags #shortlifeĪ post shared by Mette Ellis Nussbaumer on at 10:43am PDT Lion Fish are beautiful and can live from 5 to 15 years. Freshwater drum are considered roughfish by some anglers, but these relatives of redfish are fun to catch and delicious.
