I think they are the most amazing fish.
What would I need to keep one? and what precautions should I know about?
I know they are crustacean and small fish eaters and are hard to feed frozen food to.
The lionfish I would get would either be a fu man chu or the shortfin lionfish (dendrochirus brachypterus). I have read fu man chus are hard to keep alive.
Is my tank good enough for one?
It is 46 gallons been set up for three yrs I think. There is plenty of swimming space. There is about 40 lbs of lr and will be adding a little more to make it more stable. The rockwork topple everyonce in a while Tests are perfect everything is at what is should be, plenty of filtration, the fish in the tank inclue a watchman goby royal gramma PJ cardinal and a firefish.
Is it a good Idea to add a lion or should I wait for a separate tank for one.
