Abstract: A marine containment device is disclosed for containing a marine species. The device includes a body having a first end and a second end. An entry is in the first end for defining an open position and a closed position. The open position is created by a spearing device with a marine species pushing against the entry and allowing the marine species into the body. The closed position is created by the spearing device removing the spearing device from the body and stripping the marine species off the spearing device. A displacement drain is in the second end for displacing the water within the body during the open position and minimizing displacement of the water through the entry. A travel distance is in the displacement drain for offsetting the exiting water from the body and prohibiting protrusion of the marine species from the body.

Abstract: A lionfish containment unit or device used to secure a venomous or non-venomous marine species while diving. Certain embodiments of the device allow for the entry of the specimen into the containment unit without the diver coming in direct contact with the specimen. The invention includes for displacement of air and water through weep holes and other manners that prohibit the venomous spines from protruding through.
