Lionfish: Sea creatures behind an alarming invasion

The lionfish is a venomous reef fish native to the Indo-Pacific Ocean that is proving to be destructive as the species spreads to the Atlantic and Caribbean. Marlie Hall has a story on why this fish is a danger, and how the best way to combat the invasive species is by serving it up on a dinner plate.

Just watched an Outdoor Channel cooking show do an episode on lionfish. After safely removing the spines and scales, drip lime juice on the fillets, refrigerate 30min, and make ceviche.
