The Blue Realm - Toxic Invaders9

They're beautiful - and deadly, with venomous spines that resemble a lion's mane. They're lionfish, a tropical reef species normally found in the Indo-Pacific.

In these regions, they are potentially a greater threat to coral reefs and commercial fish populations than global warming or pollution. In the Florida Keys, some practical and novel approaches are making progress in the fight against these Toxic Invaders.
