Devil is appropriate. Isn't this that fish that has poisonous barbs up top?

Front three spines are venomous, I believe. They flex them if you get too close!

Weird flex but OK.

I always called them Lion fish. Where did you take this?

[–] bort 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I do too. It's been so long that I can't remember!

Where do you usually dive? I'm just curious about good dive sites etc.

I don't, I'm afraid, this one was in an aquarium

Give it a try if you ever have the chance, it's fun.
