Why would you want to risk cycling a tank with livestock? There is a good possibility that anything you put in there will be stressed big time. I would strongly suggest AGAINST using any livestock to cycle a tank with. You can go to a grocery store and buy pure ammonia and use that or get some uncooked cocktail shrimp and use that to start your cycle with.
I don't claim to be anywhere near an expert on this, but in my opinion it is just not fair to any livestock to be put in a tank that isn't cycled. Especially a lionfish.
"Some fish I would suggest for cycling:
Damsels, Lionfish, Gobbies, and Blennies"
Just not a good idea.
