Tangs and Lionfish?

[brat_23]

I am setting up a new tank and I was just wondering...
Is it okay to put Tangs and Lionfish together? I know that Lionfish are agressive and eat meet, and Tangs eat flakes, but would they be okay since the Tang would be too big for the Lion fish to eat?
Thanx,

It all depends on what species of lion you have and what size the lion is. And what species of tang you have, and how big it is. I'd say tangs are fine with lions as long as your ABSOLUTLY sure that the tang cannot get eaten.

My experience with lions has been that they ae relatively peaceful fish as long as they can't their mouths around something.

It is a 30 gallon Tank
I guess I should get the lion and the tang about the same size.
Thanx

I had a Volitan together with a Yellow Tang, they got along just fine....make sure that the Tang is not too small....'cause it could be ax expensive dinner.
