multiple lions together?

I've had a 39g FOWLR set up since late August and my fuzzy dwarf has been living in there by himself for awhile now. I would really like to get a leaf fish because the contrasting colors would be really neat but it's hard to find a place that has them in stock. I was also wanting a ghost eel but I don't know how I'd be able to compeltely seal my tank off because of all the little parts to the skimmer that go into the tank. So would it be safe to have two different species of lions together in the same tank and whenever I find a place with a leaf fish in stock put that in with the two lions? I know because of size, my other choices of lions are the zebra, antennata, radiata and fu manchu and I wouldn't mind having any of them along with my fuzzy dwarf. I'm just not sure if putting two lions together is safe or not, especially two different species. What do you think?

You could do a fuzzy and one of those lion fish in that tank. Just make sure the fu man chu eats before you get it (if you choose that species) because they are tough to get to eat. A leaf fish might be pushing the bioload but if you keep up on the water quality and have consistently low nitrates, then you would be okay.
