Horn shark /bullhead&lionfish

[Mushutherhinoscorpion]

I just set up my 300gallon tank i im housing a horn shark that is 12" &a black volt lionfish that is around the same size! ..what would be the best ..to add first the lionfish or the horn shark. ...i want to avoid any aggression from the lionfish toward the shark!!!!!!

Lions are not aggressive fish. They will just eat anything small enough to eat. A similar sized shark should be fine

I have the lionfish for somtime now and he has be aggressive at times ! With my rhino scorpionfish! And he is much of the time mellow!

So what you are saying it dont matter what fish i add first

I agree with Jay - it probably doesn't matter the order with these 2 fish.

Yea generally if its too big to eat a lion won't bother it.

Yea generally if its too big to eat a lion won't bother it...... cool thanks i have a 3 foot Mexican pale noise more with the lionfish right now and the eel swims around like a madman and hasn't been stung yet.....so i I'm just being iffy and cautious and hopefully that the horn shark doesn't get stung by the lionfish
