    New Dwarf Lionfish Help

    Eel still gets along with my copperband, both banggai’s, and filefish. And most recently a blue reef chromis that i picked up. Maybe since the lion was slower than the other fish the eel mistook it as food.

    No sign of the lion. Lost all hope at this point. I’ll make sure to get a larger one next time to eliminate my eel possibly snacking on him.

    okay. I am transferring everything in the 55 to a 75 this weekend. Maybe during the tank move she will show up.

    Still no sign of the lion. I don’t think she’s coming back anytime soon at this point.

    Yep checked all around the outside. No fish. Wouldn’t it have come out by now in search of food ?

    Still no sign of the lionfish, unfortunately.

    I doubt she had just “died” she looked very healthy the day before she wen’t missing. But, yeah, the eel going after a venomous fish does not make too much sense, especially since the eel seems fine. Hopefully she is just in the rocks like you guys are saying.

    I am just worried that she has been eaten or something. Since I picked up every rock already wouldn’t she have swam out of one she was on ?

    I really hope shes alive. Since it’s nocturnal should i look for her after the lights have been off for a while ?

    Honestly don’t know what else could’ve happened besides the eel snagging it, but i examined the eel and he has no wounds and seems fine. Since the fish is venomous i would assume it would have some effect on the little eel, but nothing. Maybe he didn’t eat it? One of my large rocks has small...

    Bad news. Came home from school today and could not locate the Lionfish. Ripped apart the whole tank in doing so. Checked around the powerheads, heater, etc. Flipped every rock and checked in my macro algae patches. Nothing. I’m guessing the eel had got to it. So weird, he has never gone after...

    He is also my oldest fish. I’ve had him for around two years now.

    Okay! He gets at least 3 whole krill a day. I like to keep him stuffed to keep any possibility of him snacking on his tankmates. Does that sound good for him?

    Also, I shouldn’t be worried about the snowflake eel attacking and eating the small lionfish, right? He has never bothered fish before but the lion being so small does concern me slightly. But then again, the eel doesn’t even bother my peppermint shrimp. Him being a pebble-toothed, crustacean...

    Ok ! Thank you. Her being so small just kinda freaks me out. I didn’t know they were even sold at that size ! But she is so cute and am prepared to keep her happy and healthy. How quickly does yours grow ? I’m hoping she will get larger sooner rather than later.

    Right i’m just worried that she might not be interested in them bc theyre too large. Is she just not hungry from her large meal last night? Since she is so (so) small i was hoping i could wean her with brine now so by the time she is larger she can eat frozen krill and the sort.

    She is not taking to any more shrimp. They are all too large for her to eat i think. Should i try brine shrimp and then slowly mix PE Mysis in with it to get her to start accepting frozen? I honestly think live brine is the only live food she can take at the moment— all my other ghosts are too...

    Put some more shrimp in for her today. No feeding response. Is this normal ? She ate a shrimp the size of her last night. Not sure if shes just full or not.

    It would not take to small mysis. I tried live ghost shrimp and it ate one (shrimp was about the size of it.) Feeding this fish is super difficult. Since she is so small she gets intimidated by any other creature in the tank thats larger than her (which is basically everything.) I have attached...
