HI!!!! Do you think I can keep a six-line wrasses, reef debilus lobster[purple lobster] green chromis, and a perc clown with a dwarf zebra lionfish. since its half the size of some other lionfish.
I know it would have to go in last. Thanks
Paul

yeah but they get to 7" and will eat small fish. A fu manchu would be ok but they are a little pricey and hard to get to eat

i think it realy depends upon your lionfish himself.my large lion eats black mollies some on the larger side often 2 in one bite if they are close enough to each other but yet he doesnt bother my striped damsels that reside in the same tank.I think if the fish is aprox 1 inch but also on the wider side (top to bottom)they dont seem to bother them.
