I think you are looking at this the wrong way. The question is not what eats an adult lion fish but what in their natural habitat eats their 2,000,000 eggs and fry a year.

I'm going on holiday for a week to the Bahamas diving. What should I do when I see Lionfish/Scorpion fish? Should I kill them? Capture them? If so, what's the best technique?

Are you aware of the damage these invasives cause? Indeed they are beautiful fish and I enjoyed photographing them, but beauty is best in its proper place.
