You are coming off really negative and this thread has already turned. If you like you can block Mitsutech and you will not be able to see his posts. Cursing will get you banned even if you don't consider a@#$$# to be a bad word. Tone it down a little and Cherish the Life of the fish you intend to keep. I'd agree that 14g is going to be small. Why not go bigger? Dwarfs will get 5-6 inches according to Reefkeeping online magazine and require at least 30 gallons.

To add I don't think you are going to find a single person that will think that a fuzzy dwarf can go in that tank. But you wanted a picture so here ya go compliments of GOOGLE

I agree with the 14g being too small for said fish. In respect to the size most lions get, yes the fuzzy dwarf is small, but still gets to be around 6 inches. Even with that, the fish needs a min. of 30g. Can it live in something smaller? Sure. Will it thrive? Probably not. People do things, and make them work I just wouldn't myself when I could go with a larger tank and still get the animal I want while being significantly nicer to said animal.

According to the book that I have (Marine Fishes, by Scott W. Michael), Fuzzy Dwarfs need at least a 30 gallon. They get up to 6.7 inches, and even at 2 inches when it is a baby, a 14 gallon is too small.
As for the frogfish, the book states for each of the frogfish that they need a minimum of a 30 gallon, and do best in a species only tank, or with tankmates much larger than itself (in a 14 gallon, you won't be able to provide that).
I am a newbie myself, and have been doing a ton of research and will keep doing more even when I get my tank. Making the wrong decisions, from what I've heard on these forums, costs money, time, and the lives of innocent fish.
Please research more before making any decisions

i remember a discussion i had with aw2, apparently frogfish can eat fish that are bigger than they are.. 14 is to small for a fuzzy, and to small for a frogfish, not only that.. your fuzzy will most likely get eaten..
