thank you all, I really do want the lion fish. however my wife would love to have a clown fish. perhaps I now need 2 tanks, thanks for all your help everyone!
Sorry for the delay, I was out in the sea for a bit, anyway.. I have a 125 gallon. To be honest, I didn't know that there are different types of lion fish. a red Volitan Lion fish is what I want to have. Thank you all for your input on this!
