Nekton can fight against currents- plankton cannot. Think about the difference between someone who is good at swimming and someone who is not swimming in the ocean. The good swimmer can get pounded by the waves, and still swim in whatever direction they want. But if a bad swimmer gets pounded by the waves, they can only go for a little distance in the direction they want before going the direction that the current takes them. That's the difference between plankton and nekton.
The lionfish belongs in the nekton group. Nekton are aquatic organisms that are able to swim and move independently of water currents, unlike plankton which are drifters, and benthos which dwell at the bottom of a body of water.
