Lionfish behavior observed during study of effect of density on lionfish behavior at Eleuthera, Bahamas in 2012 (Lionfish Invasion project)

<p>An observational field study was conducted on natural patch reefs with varying lionfish densities to determine if local invasive lionfish density affects lionfish behavior. This dataset contains information on activities during each 10-minute focal lionfish observation. The observations took place on natural reefs near Rock Sound, Eleuthera, Bahamas from 16 July to 30 August 2012.</p>
