The devil firefish, also called the common lionfish, is a striped fish with long, feathery fins. It lives in the Indian Ocean, from the Red Sea to Indonesia, and has also spread into the Mediterranean, the east coast of the United States and the Caribbean. Its fin spines are venomous and can cause severe pain, so give it plenty of room.1

  • It grows up to 35 cm (14 in) long.1
  • Its head is less angular than that of the red lionfish.1

Chefo ya yona (eo e e kenyang ka ho loma kapa ho hlaba) e etsang?

The fin spines are highly venomous. A sting can cause extreme pain, vomiting, convulsions, minor paralysis and breathing difficulties.1

The fin spines have caused death in some reported cases, but a sting is rarely fatal. Some people are more sensitive to the venom than others, and symptoms vary in severity from person to person.1

E etsang ha e tshohile?

Its venomous spines help protect it, which is probably why it has few predators.1

Haeba meutlwa ya yona e o hlaba

  • Immediate emergency medical attention is strongly recommended after any sting, even for healthy adults, because reactions vary and can be unpredictable.1
