these pics are awesome. I was going to get a myers dwarf lion, but reconsidering after seeing these pics. Any suggestions on what type of dwarf lion I should get? Would like to have something with all those colors.

all the lions you see in these pics are fuzzy dwarf lions...actually most of the fuzzy dwarf that are sold are a plain brown color...it's only once in a while where you see more rare color patterns such as red and yellow...also these lions are notorious for not accepting frozen food...all i ask is that you do ample research before you buy a fuzzy dwarf lion...other then that...these are my favorite fish in the hobby...

Jt i must admit i am starting to lean as the fuzzy being my favorite fish.. he is so cool ..he hangs out front of tank all day and when feeding time comes hes like a puppy waiting for you to throw him a ball...His fins all flare out his dorsal spins waver back and forth in a alternating pattern and he wiggles back and forth waiting for his prey to move so he can pounce.. and realistically live Ghost shrimp only run about 3 bucks a week at .19each.. feed him 3 every other day..truely fun to watch!!
Hamalaya, And as far as colors brown is the norm..you just have to frequent the LFS and be ready to buy when they come in in the rare colors.. had this tank running for 3 months waiting for the right FUzzy

I dont know about 4-5inches i thought they got between 7-8. I also agree about the frozen food. I could not get her to take it at all. She would bite it and then spit it out and swim away so I couldnt let her starve so i continued feeding her rosie reds. I know thats bad but goldfish are worse! Im such a sucker for a cute face!

most sites say that they dont get over 7 inches...and i have never seen one in the hobby over 5 inches...
