They Say Yes

I was thinking of putting a V. LionFish in my 55g fowlr but my friends at swf.com said no. So when I began in this saltwater hobby I wanted to put a H.H Trigger in my tank. Would it be alright If I put one with a fuzzydwarf and a orange stripped goby.

They can grow to 12 inches - althought the growth rate is much slower then the lion - a 55 would not be large enough for them long term.

not to smart dude JMO!

my lfs has a v.lion as wide as a 55 gallon tank..no joke! and its stomach is the size of a softball

You do not want to put a trigger with a lion, especially one as timid as a fuzzy dwarf.

and ESPECIALLY not in a 55!

Who in the world would voted yes to something like this? :scared:

its 15" max.....

If it's a small one, no problem. It will need larger eventually, though. Just plan on upgrading. A 55 g for a 2 inch is probably like a 250 gallon for a 10 inch, right?
