Lionfish - Juveniles


These two shots of baby Lionfish were taken at different times. The first is a very young Red Firefish and was captured at the Abrolhos Islands. My buddy had spotted it and was pointing to it, but I could not see what she meant. I took a shot and it was only when I was back on the boat that I could see what I'd taken. A very lucky photo as the fish was only a couple of centimetres long. The second shot was taken at Sipadan Island and is of a slightly older Common Lionfish.

  1. Maybe they ought to be named Tiger Fish!

  2. These are amazing, you were so lucky to catch the first shot. I really like the bottom one, very dramatic looking.
