Pterois antennata, like many fish species, has very different common names like Broadbarred Firefish and Spotfin Lionfish. The species occurs in the tropical Indo-Pacific from East Africa to Marquesan and Mangaréva Islands, north to southern Japan, south to Queensland, Australia, Kermadec and Austral Islands in a depth range from 2-86m in lagoon and seaward reefs, hiding in crevices under rocks and coral formations during the day and hunting at night, feeding on shrimps and crabs, max. length 20cm. \nThe outline of this fish is visually disturbed by the numerous spiny projections and fleshy tabs improving camouflage by mimicking a Sea Urchin.\nTriton Bay, Kaimana Regency, West Papua Province, Indonesia, 3°53'24.468 S 134°6'34.02 E at 20m depth

The Common Lionfish Pterois volitans inhabits lagoon and seaward reefs from turbid inshore areas to depths of 50 m of the tropical Pacific Ocean from Cocos-Keeling Islands and Western Australia in the eastern Indian Ocean to the Marquesas and Oeno (Pitcairn Group), north to southern Japan and southern Korea, south to Lord Howe Island, northern New Zealand, and the Austral Islands. Often solitary, the species  hides in unexposed places at daytime often with head down and practically immobile, using the pattern for camouflage as a hunting skill. \nThe species has recently invaded Western Atlantic and Caribbean coral reefs, and may become one of the most ecologically harmful marine fish introductions to date. The dorsal fins are venomous, but it is a popular table fish. Max. length 38cm. \nThis specimen from Triton Bay, West Papua Province, Indonesia hides in Antipathes sp. Black coral, 3°53'24.4657 S 134°6'34.0173 E at 20m depth

Pterois antennata, the spotfin lionfish, banded lionfish, broadbarred lionfish, broadbarred firefish, raggedfinned firefish, raggedfinned scorpionfish or roughscaled lionfish, is a species of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Scorpaenidae, the scorpionfishes and lionfishes. It is found in the tropical Indian and Western Pacific Oceans.
This fish is red, although underwater the red color is the first color that disappears. So the fish believe in its camouflage to eat and as protection.
