That grouper is going to regret his meal choice lol
 
It looked like he was looking for the sweet spot to bite the lion...either the tail or stomach..
 
i thought i read somewhere that they were teaching groupers to eat lionfish or was it sharks.

I think it was sharks. There are several locations along the Atlantic that lion fish are becoming a problem. But there are a few vids of people harpooning them and letting the triggers and groupers feast. Never seen a grouper actually hunt one though. Nice!
 
Diving in the Bahamas last year I saw more lionfish than any other large predator! It's a big issue and any natural predators would be a huge help!
