Here is my Fuzzy Dwarf Lionfish "Lexie" I have had her for 2 months now. She is in my 25 gal tank with two ocellaris clowns that I have had for 2 years so they are not tiny. I was very lucky to get this fish as the LFS that I deal with only sells these fish that have been fed frozen foods. So, I did not have to go through what alot of others complain about trying to get their fish onto frozen foods. The only stumbling block that I have come to is that she will under no cirucumstance eat anything but brine shrimp. Many say there is no nutritional value in this food but I still offer small amounts of krill and mysis shrimp. She will not touch this and starved for 4 days and still would not eat it when offered to her. So this leads me to beleive that they fed these lions only brineshrimp. I don't like to see my fish starve so this is what she is currently eating. She has grown quite a bit since I got her. They are truly neat fish, personality plus. Do some reading here on the forum, under the aggressive section there is lots of talk about these fish and good info too.
