I V. lionfish and he just stopped eating and went three months without eating before I had to put him down, so 7 days shouldnt be a problem. I would just feed him well before you take off. HTH

Looks like cartman is the only one who thinks no.

i had one that refused everything i gave him including live stuff for 3 weeks. so your guy should be fine.

I don't think you would have a problem at all. I just wouldn't house any small fish or fish who are borderline to fitting in his mouth as he may seek out his own food while you are gone. Otherwise, both of our dwarf lions have went 7 days without eating and no ill effects.

A lionfish can easily go 7 days without food.

Easily. Depending on the tankmates, it may get lonley after awhile though.https://www.saltwaterfish.com/vb/newr...e=1&p=1455179#
