The g. smithii's are also awesome but are harder to find.

Lionfish aren't "mean", I don't even consider them 'aggressive" They are predators that will seldom bother anything they can't swallow. It is much more common for a lion to be the target of a "mean" fish.

I agree. Lionfish are just hungry.
Id do the Mantis as well.

The meanest little fish I know of are damsels. They are very beautiful. Most are about 2 -3 inches when mature. They are not venomous but will bite you and draw blood.

I was gonna say, my female maroon clown was one of the meanest fish I've had. I couldn't even put my hand in the tank.

30 gallon long would be good enough. 30 regular would not be for a GSM

Lionfish get a bad rep, they're not mean, just hungry..
Get a mantis. I want to put one in our 40G but my husband said we have to sell it or turn it into a QT!
She isn't alone...they are evil critters, that drink blood drawn from human hands. They are small, and strikingly beautiful. Meowzer may have some babies to give you...she has hundreds of devil spawn eggs.

Damsels are the some of the best fish in the world when housed correctly. They are some of the brightest active bulletproof fish we own in this hobby.

Interesting... I've never had a damsel, although the maroon clowns are in the same family. I might have to try some, maybe in my spare 30 gal.

Human fingers are a favorite snack.
