Aside from instances of larger lionfish individuals engaging in cannibalism on smaller individuals, adult lionfish have few identified natural predators. This is likely due to the effectiveness of their venomous spines. Moray eels (family Muraenidae), bluespotted cornetfish (Fistularia commersonii) and large groupers, like the tiger grouper (Mycteroperca tigris) and Nassau grouper (Epinephelus striatus), have been observed preying on lionfish. It remains unknown, however, as to how commonly these predators prey on lionfish. Sharks are also believed to be capable of preying on lionfish with no ill-effects from its spines.
Young lionfish, like all other fish, are called fry. There is no other name for the lionfish, young or old.
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.

a lionfish is like a lion, if you would say so. i guess you could call it the lion of the ocean, if you wish. a lionfish is a very poisonous fish with spines across it's back. if you were to touch these spines and be injected with their poison, you would be in a lot of pain, and may even die if you did not admit yourself to the hospital right away.
No i is not. In fact a scientific survey revealed that lionfish were eating tropical fish. When lionfish entered an area al the tropical fish had there survival rate slashed by 80% as they fell prey to these lionfish.

A lionfish will slowly approach a small fish. When close enough, a quick dart forward will catch the small fish, which is swallowed whole. The poisonous spines of the lionfish are for defence, not to catch prey.
