do you think i will have room for a dwarf lionfish in the future?

yes i'd think so, since they dont move all that much.

oh i love dwarf lions, i had one a long time ago that was like a little dog, he was just so fun to watch

 

[kev.1979]

how big do they tend to get, do they grow fast?

 

[babyb]

smaller than your hand minus the fingers

[kev.1979]

thanks, 2 months, i know i need to slow down a little!

Very nice stuff! I was also interested in getting a dwarf gonna do some more research though!

 

[kev.1979]

yeah, i wanted to make sure they wouldn't mess with the clowns so i'm gonna let them grow for awile just to be safe! i also read they eat live shrimp and live fish so i don't know if i'm gonna want to run to the lfs every week to get food.

ahaha yea same problem, I really enjoy cleaner and blood shrimp but its a no go with the lionfish
