Heard Emperors are difficult to keep, any truth in that?
alot of truth to that, I have never been able to keep one long term. They are fairly sensitive fish, but once established they do well.
The clown trigger is not a good idea, as stated above they become very aggressive as they grow. Having a lion limits your possible tankmates, including most triggers and puffers. I keep a blue jaw trigger with my lions, and although many people steer clear of triggers all together I have never had an issue with blue jaws.
Tangs make good tank mates for lions, but I would hold off on them till you set up the 180, a tusk is also and excellent choice. For now you lion will be pushing the bioload in a 100 when it is fully grown, which will be less than a year from where you are now.
, have left a 8 inch v. lion, mexican dragon eel, goldentail eel and a 5 inch clown trigger on the way in a 100g. Looking for one more fish that would add some color to tank. Any suggestions? Another trigger maybe? Oh yeah, has to be bigger than my eel's mouth (made quick work of a couple damsels).
