Is there such a thing as a reef safe lionfish and one that doesn't get to big (4"-6") ? I heard that Dwarf Zebra Lionfish is a pretty peacefull Lionfish. :help: Please. All information will be greatly apreciated.

I have a red voiltian in my tank, Means he's fine with corals and fish as big so that they won't fit in his mouth. But no shrimp and i wouldn't put an arrow or emrald crab in. But he's my buddy. I only have a big clarki in with him. He's the mean one
towards me. If my lion acted like him i would problay have to give him away.
