Talk:Lionfish (disambiguation)

message: "The lionfish is not native to the tropical region of the world..."
I think this is not true.
First sentence from: http://library.thinkquest.org/C007974/2_1lio.htm
"This brightly colored fish is usually found in coral reefs, especially in shallow waters of the Indo-Pacific region, hovering in caves or near crevices. "

message: "They are QUITE tasty. Lemon helps. Asparagus is an excellent accompanyment. Go with a Aussie white wine, and lingonberry mousse from IKEA for dessert."
I doubt it's worth putting in the article. Can anyone justify its existence? Crimson Shadow 21:49, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Hey, there are separate entries for "Lionfish" and "Scorpionfish", neither of which refers to the other. Should these be consolidated? I'm under the impression that they're kind of the same general thing.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.115.196.46 (talk) 06:14, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  seen in bahamas 

message: The 'size' section of the page currently reads: "There are many types of lionfish that are 20 feet long The common lionfish generally reaches a size of 30-35cm, while smaller lionfish, like the Fucking retarded Dwarf, are typically the size of a tennis ball, not including fins". I'm sure it's reasonable to assume that 'Fucking retarded Dwarf' is not a type of lionfish. 138.130.128.242 (talk) 01:21, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Vandalism 

message: I’m a biologist and I would like to question this whole concept of ‘invasive species’.  What is wrong with a species being successful in a Darwinian sense?  If lionfish are spreading out all over the world, good on them.  At least they aren’t endangered.  They don’t bother anyone.  Don’t mess with them and they won’t mess with you.  I have been seeing them while SCUBA diving off New Providence Island all week.  I like them.  It’s natural to have loser species replaced with more successful species. 
Ditto the snakeheads in the Chesapeake Bay. You don't hear snakeheads whining about too much nitrogen in the Bay.  They just deal with it successfully.  
The Earth is not static.  Lame, non-resilient, overly specialized species always get their butts kicked by smart tough flexible species.  It has been happening for about 4 billion years now.  broughtonspence@verizon.net  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.236.125.93 (talk) 03:58, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
