A lionfish hunts a small damselfish. This was a rare scene to witness, as a Lionfish almost never misses its intended prey. This scene was captured in 720p HD at 60 frames a second. Lionfish, when feeding, are nearly impossible to catch at regular film speeds. Even in slow motion, if you blink, you will miss the strike!

  • @jepuskar Amen.

    Looks like this was filmed in an aquarium, not diving. No buoyancy issues and not an UW camera, so no housing.

  • Wow...you have excellent buoyancy. What kind of housing do you use?

    Also, please make sure to mark the spot where this Lionfish is so people can kill it later.
