Beautiful World Underwater

heir invasive range stretches from as far north as Massachusetts, throughout the Caribbean to Venezuela. In some areas, as many as 300 Lionfish per hectare have been recorded. Lionfish are voracious eaters. Dining on small reef fish and crustaceans, they are known as a gape-limited predator, meaning they will eat anything that fits within the circumference of their mouth. Capable of eating prey up to 2/3 their body size, a Lionfishes stomach will expand up to 30 times its empty volume. The non-specific nature of their feeding habits means they are directly impacting on both environmentally and commercially important fish and crustacean species. Help support Carriacou's Invasive Lionfish Containment project by purchasing gifts handmade from the fins & spines of locally caught invasive lionfish.
