Is it ok to put these fish together in the same tank

[pfcbizz]

I want to really thank all for the advise about the Lionfish, but work isnt something Im going to worry bout I always wanted a Dwarf Fuzzy lionfish so I'll be getting one and a flame Angelfish and I'll find something else to add to the tank but I'm not going to let work scare me way

Lion is alot of work to tell you the truth. Sacrifice one to gain many I say.
To be honest, once weaned, lionfish are very little work. They don't require daily feeding, they're super peaceful, disease resistant, and most species tolerate declining water conditions better than most fish. They're super pretty (they come in lots of "flavors"), and very "personable" fish.

Thanks again Saxman, So I know you've given me advise and suggestions, but I'm slow at times and look for the answer I sometimes want to hear no matter what people tell me, Lol, please forgive me for that, but thats me, Now I've decided to go with a Dwarf Fuzzy Lionfish and a FlameAngelfish so give me one more type of fish to add with them and remember I don't want to pay alot of money for this fish, Lol

I think that a large adult clarkii clownfish single or pair could be nice.

 

[saxman]

Do you want a "water column" fish or something that is a bottom-hugger?

 

[pfcbizz]

well I'd like something that would swim around but just to have another type of fish in the tank is nice also

 

[saxman]

A foxface, group of Kaudern's/Banggai cardinals or lyretail anthias (mind the size differential with the lion), another dwarf species lionfish, small species scorps/waspfish, lantern bass, tobacco basslet (again, mind the size differential)...there are lots of possibilities.

 

[pfcbizz]

Wow, you really do know your stuff, I didnt know about all these different types of fish, but I excited to learn about them and even investing in them I'll for sure be doing another tank because I love dealing with tanks and fish and learning about all the different types, so I'll look into those you mentioned and see with one or ones I wil choose, Oh and another question how many fish do you think I should put in a 85gallon tank without overcrowding and them making alot of waste ?

Altho it's still getting a few tweaks, our new lionfish care article just went "live", so you might want to check it out:

Looks good.

 

[saxman]

The tank is going to look great...can't wait to see it up and "breathing"!
Glad you liked the article, and that it seems to "pop" in the eye candy department. It's still getting a couple of tweaks here and there, and we do plan on keeping it updated.
If your son enjoyed all the pix, show him the Our Tanks section here: http://www.lionfishlair.com/gregandreneegallery/galleryfront.shtml
Each photo is "clickable" and will open up additional pix of that fish.

P.S can't wait to see the lion.

 

[rainbow grouper]

LOVE THE SITE!

 

[pfcbizz]

Wow,he will really enjoy those I plan on setting him up a small freshwater tank in his room soon, and he wants a Eel, but my question is which of these fish can be in a tank with a fuzzy Lionfish and flame Angek fish ?

 

[pfcbizz]

I will surely posting pic's

 

[rainbow grouper]

Um freshwater are totally different from saltwater and you can't get any of the fish from the sea into freshwater if for lake and river fish so he won't be getting an eel and another thing most eels grow to 20 inches so small doesn't work.
