Lionfish Slayer
Share
Lionfish Slayers make your part in eliminating Lionfish fun and safe (safer). Our Slayers are designed with safety and accuracy as the utmost priority.
Lionfish are not, as of yet, amassing in spots on every dive in Florida waters and the entire Caribbean, but most divers see at least one if not a few on their dive. The Lionfish Slayer is designed to be attached to your BC and convenient access for when/if you come across a Lionfish. When you do, pull out the gun, kill the fish and either keep it or leave it on the ocean floor and continue with t

Opportunistic Monsters!
Invasive Species Awareness Week
Lionfish are opportunistic generalists, meaning they will prey on any convenient species up to 1/2 their own body size. They rotate between prey items based on what is most easily captured and available.
Lionfish prey on ecologically and economically important species of fishes and invertebrates.
Some examples of economically important species are snapper, grouper, shrimp, crabs, and lobster. Without large numbers of juveniles of these species, the adult populations cannot be replaced as they age.
Ecologically important species examples are parrotfish, damselfish, and wrasses. These grazers and herbivores help keep the reefs clean of parasites and algae.
Lionfish are effective predators. Their techniques include ambushing prey, cooperative hunting, and "corralling" with their fan-like pectoral fins.
Lionfish can consume substantial numbers of small fish and crustaceans in one feeding, reducing small fish populations by up to 90 percent.

Precipitous Declines in Northern Gulf of Mexico Invasive Lionfish Populations
Precipitous Declines in Northern Gulf of Mexico Invasive Lionfish Populations Following the Emergence of an Ulcerative Skin Disease Invasive Indo-Pacific lionfish Pterois volitans/miles have become well-established in many western Atlantic marine habitats and regions. However, high densities and low genetic diversity could make their populations susceptible to disease. We examined changes in northern Gulf of Mexico (nGOM) lionfi...
