Thanks Jim,

Not trying to be a too critical, but how about "interesting" rather than
"amazing".  

This appears to be highly conceptual, and with many issues including among
others... galvanotaxis difficulties with high conductivity in seawater,
ability to maneuver the host machine close enough to lionfish to corral  it
between the electrodes, logistics of operation and surface support and cost.

To me the amazing part is that so many ideas get play before they are
proven.
