ok this is my problem. i am trying to decide what to put in my 55 gallon tank. i want to go with the green wolf eel and a lionfish. are they going to cause in problems with each other. and is there anything else that i might be able to throw in with them?

well what type of lionfish were you thinking of. I personally think a 55 is too small for some of them. as long as the eel can't eat the fishy, he will be fine. and no, that would be your limit. you can't put anything small in the tank as boththe fish and eel will eat whatever they can fit into their mouths.

A Volitan Lion can get pretty big, and will outgrow your 55g. You could do a one of the dwarf lions though. For the Dwarfs, I like the Dwarf/Zebra Lionfish the best.
