    210g Things with Stings tank.

    The noise doesn't bother us, having 13 tanks and being in the hobby for 15 years myself and Greg much longer.... it's not an issue time will help with. We have a tank on our night stand and at one time had 6 tanks in our bedroom. But this is our preemo entertainment room. A 65" LED TV, awesome...

    Did you ever cry because your fish died?

    I try not to go lower than 10x in any of my tanks, so that would sound good.

    I would probably bump up the flow. They don't like to be blown around but over the years I've found lower flow tanks just not to be as "healthy". Higher flow will help your skimmer work better as well.

    If you got a nice big sixline, and got a sub-adult Fu, you'd probably be fine size wise. I'm trying to sit here and picture the two in my head. A Fuzzy/Barb/Zebra, would slurp one down. I'm just emphasizing that in case someone skipping through this thinks it will work with all dwarf lions...

    That's too many big fish in that size tank for that mix to work. Lions may not be aggressive, but they ARE like swimming pin cushions. That much traffic in that size tank.... someone's getting jabbed. Some of those fish are too big for that size tank even on their own....

    Identify which species of lionfish is mine

    I can't say anything about people's grow out tanks. I like to buy my fish small and often start off in a tank that will not be their end destination. Perfect example... volitans in a 6g.

    Our tanks where we can stick feed everything are always pristine clean and run smoothly with just a little macro and a skimmer. It's when you pour food into the tanks that you run into trouble. One time on my volitan tank, I never cleaned the glass for over 3 months.

    I think you will be limited by a breeding pair of maroons more than anything. If you get them big enough, the fuzzies won't eat them, but I have no idea on the temperment of a maroon.... let alone a breeding pair.

    I'm practicing staining every day LOL. I'm totally afraid of messing it up. This is a big ole beast to turn out poorly. Everyday I sand down my practice sheet and literally practice.

    Finding a true pair of Fus may be difficult. If you have somewhere else to put one or have someone to give one to, you could take the chance. Those males should leave each other allow. They look totally different and one hangs on the bottom and the other perches and plays higher. It's more the...
