Species Overview

Blue Marlin

The blue marlin is the pinnacle of big-game fishing. Found in tropical and temperate Atlantic and Indo-Pacific waters, it can exceed 500 kg and is known for spectacular aerial displays when hooked.

The red lionfish is a venomous coral reef fish native to the Indo-Pacific. Its ornate, striped body and fan-like pectoral fins make it popular in aquariums, but it has become a destructive invasive species in the western Atlantic and Caribbean.
