Teamcasa:I was reading this thread and it talked about a non-native lionfish being introduced into Florida’s costal waters. The question came up about removing them and what effect the species may have if left un-checked. Here in SoCal, we have a growing problem with an invasive seaweed. I’m sure there are thousands of other examples of non-native species being introduced to our seas and I don’t want to turn this into an argument revolving around any one specific foreign introduction but I would like discussion about how to treat it.
My initial reaction is that in most cases it’s too late to do anything other than prevent additional introductions. I feel that once a species has established itself, removing it may do more unintentional harm than good.
