That a beautiful new friend. Congrats.
 
I went scuba diving in the Caribbean Sea when vacationing in Belize. The Lion Fish is an invasive species and is having a negative impact on the reefs native fish. The dive master and the assistants had spears and killed every Lion Fish they could. They kept them to eat. I unfortunately didn't get to eat any myself.

Maybe we should give people tax returns for taking invasive lionfish as pets instead of buying new ones ;P
 
Where is he in the eatin' department, Doug?
 
Not, or not frozen. Apparently I'm going to have to ween him over. He won't even look at frozen right now.
 
Perdy! He looks like he wants to be petted! (Disclaimer: just kidding don't do this)
 
Sometimes the bigger volitans can be harder "to go", believe it or not. You would think they'd flip right over.
 
I'm thinking I am going to have to try live just to get something in him. Then go from there. Hasn't eaten for me yet.
 
Lions can go in reefs! Smaller ones are perfect.
 
Guess who ate frozen last night!!!

I've been feeding live, and hate doing that, but he was eating them. On a fluke I tried full silversides last night on the stealth stick and he took them all.
