Im getting a lionfish for christmas is there any othe fish i can put in with him in my 29????and could i put a arrow crab and a anemone crab in there too????

if i remember right yur getting an Antennata? If u r than no u cant have another fish because anything small enough to fit in that tank would be eaten. It might not eat the arrow crab but it would try to eat the anemone crab.

I dont know if it is very accurate but aquiriumstuffer dot com has a compatability chart that shows compatability from each fish to each fish they dont just stop half way across the page you can look at that and see what can go with what. or read this link www dot aquariumpros dot com/articles/compatibility dot shtml

you dont need a compatibility chart w/ a lionfish...its simple. if it fits into its mouth its food. All things that don't fit into its mouth is safe.
peppermint shrimp,=food, damsels, small gobies=food.
Big fish=safe.

anything 5" or more would be safe but anything 3" or more wouldnt fit.
