They aren't aggressive fish, so to get stuck by one usually involves an uncareful hobbyist.
If you got stuck by one, you would run your hand under the hottest running tap water you could stand. No has died from a lionfish sting that I have read of. I know of a few people that have been stung.

only thing people worry about is a shark getting stung. Lions arent aggressive. They are just eat other fish. More a predator. people have rays and sharks with lions. Most bamboo sharks hang out on the sand while the lion will be mid to high level. You should be okay

i said should. there is a risk. Id risk it. Just try and feed the one or the other first and on different sides of the tank if possible

I've had mine for almost 3 years now and before I got it, I was worried I would get stung too. But mine is so totally peaceful that now I put my hand in the tank all the time, without any fears at all. Really, the only way I'd ever get stung would be if I was totally careless. I say go for it. They make great fish and have a lot of personality.

latin lords tank is way too small for a shark. the puffers do pick on sharks. They tend to just lay on the bottom and do nothing.

the puffer doesn't mess with the shark.. the shark hides in his cave ALL DAY.. .then at night when the other fish go to sleep or their little corner, he comes out and swims around more... One time... the bluechin go too close to the sharks food and when the shark went for his food he cripped up the bluechin.. it was crazy!! litterally was holding then bluechins face in its mouth... he noticed he was too big to swollow so he left the bluechin go.. now the bluechin doesn't get so close to the sharks food fi the shark is near...
