Beautiful! Did some shell collecting on Okinawa a while back. These pretty guys were never a welcome sight. Very territorial, and if you were in between you were deep in trouble.

These guys have been let loose along the coast of Florida (US) and are breeding their way west. Should be down here to Texas in a few years. Really like the picture, no so much the fish.

Good take through glass, Maresa. Given the date of capture, and the place we were not so far apart!

Polish name would be translated as wingfish...

That seems like a more suitable name

For me, yes. Lionfish fits quite well too.

That is the weirdest breed of fish I have ever seen. It looks so...asymmetrical.

He looks like he should maybe rather be a bird or something
