the aphotic zone.... but where in the aphotic zone???

A lionfish is not actually pregnant; instead, they lay eggs. The female lionfish will release thousands of eggs into the water, where they are fertilized by the males.
No, there is generally no equilibrium in ecosystems where lionfish have invaded. As an invasive species, lionfish significantly disrupt local marine ecosystems by preying on native fish populations and competing for resources, leading to declines in biodiversity. Their rapid reproduction and lack of natural predators in these environments exacerbate the imbalance, resulting in altered food webs and degraded habitats. Consequently, the introduction of lionfish often leads to long-term ecological consequences.
A lionfish is a carnivore, meaning it primarily feeds on other animals. It preys on smaller fish and crustaceans by using its venomous spines to immobilize its prey before consuming them.
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.
habitat
a lionfishes shelter is under his habitat, which is the coral reefs!
Lionfish are apex predators in their native habitat and have few natural predators. Groupers, moray eels, and sharks are some of the species known to prey on lionfish. Additionally, humans have been encouraged to hunt and consume lionfish to help control their invasive populations.
you can find them in the gulf coast though this is not their natural habitat they are invasive there
