6 weeks ago I started it up. Yesterday it was finally time to add my first fish. He's a stonefish. His name is Leonard.
Thanks for all the help I got from everyone.

Uhhhhhhhh... Careful with that fish. They have a tendency of killing people. Be careful of its spines, because that is the venomous part. In fact, just try not to put your hand in the tank. And by the way, what size tank is that?

Not true at all. Lionfish are not bad at all. They will NOT go for you. And stick your hand in your tank all you want, just look where you're putting your hand
there are about 0 recorded cases of deaths by lionfish, unless it gets in to your bloodstream. Which, in that case you would still have to have an alergic reaction to die. Unless you get stung, and get a secondary infection you really have nothing but a small bee sting to worry about. (unless it is a scorpionfish/ stonefish, which it looks a bit like)

No not dead. Just been busy. He is a very cool fish to watch. He dont do alot of swimming. He usually just uses his two side fins and kind of walks around on the bottom. Until its feeding time then he swims around. I have special aquarium cleaning gloves too so dont worry, Ill be fine

I dont think they get much bigger. But with in one year he will be in a 125 gallon. The fiance wants my bow front tank for corals and clownfish and stuff. So she gave me the ok to get a bigger tank. I really want a ray, but I think they need a 200+ gallon tank, right? so maybe ill get a 240. I dont know yet.
