Lionfish are great to eat. I've had them on a few occasions and like most white meat fish, it doesn't have that strong "fishy" taste to it.
The lions are a huge problem in the Caribbean. I've only been to Grand Cayman and to Belize, where there were much larger numbers of lionfish present. Every dive in Belize we took spears with us. Most times we would get a couple, but they would be smaller. The larger ones would be deeper where I wasn't going. On many occasions nurse sharks would follow us and eat the lions right off the spears. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyktW-vO3kQ This is a problem that will never be fixed. It is too widespread and it will be a matter of time to see what affects there are on the ecosystem.

I love diving especially if you see sharks
My first dive with sharks, was a long time ago http://environment.nationalgeographi...-reefs/#page=1 we had sometime 50 plus sharks around us, and they were hitting my underwater strobes  I have been diving with sharks in the Galapagos Island (Hammerheads etc,) Bahamas (shark feed), Honduras, Red Sea, Indonesia, plus some other places. They are so cool a few shot of a White Tip Oceanic about 10 ft long, in the Red Sea
