"The appearance of lion fish in large numbers and dense density could be the worst environmental disaster that the Atlantic Ocean faces" , CNN quoted Graham Maddocks, president and founder. Ocean Support Organization, said.

Lion fish are marine creatures that live in tropical waters of the South Pacific and Indian Ocean, are poisonous, reproduce fast and are not attacked by predators. With the ability to eat aggressively anything, lion fish can destroy up to 90% of a coral reef.

This fish can lay between 30,000 and 40,000 eggs in a few days, a fish develops fertility by about one year.

Ecological scientist James Morris of the National Oceanic Science Center said that lion fish could make a big difference to the Atlantic's biodiversity because these fish are considered " "high-level" predators have the largest numbers in some Atlantic reefs.

According to Maddocks, biologists need to control their behavior and use the highest-tech GPS navigation system to serve machines to capture the lion fish effectively and efficiently. camera rotation and humans can survive when going down the ocean depth that this fish lives.

People living around the sea participate in the lion fishing effort by organizing fishing competitions to catch lion fish as much as possible. However, this measure is still not able to completely prevent the number of lion fish.
