how many lionfish can be kept saftly in a 1100 gal. tank?
also. can i keep lionfish with devil fish...?
-thanks so much :huh:
 
Of the same species? I'd go with no more than 4-5. They are territorial, and given lots of room, actually very active swimmers. Any fish smaller than them will be eaten--even other lions. Anything big enough to consider them food isn't a good choice--a large fish that isn't familiar with lions may try to eat one, and be killed.

:eek:

Wow! Any chance we may see pictures?
 
i dont know what fish i would want to keep with them. i still dont know if i am going to go with salt or fresh...
 
Wow Sharpie, you really bounce around on what you want. Didn't you start out wanting a 500g. I hope you have the experience and know-how to support that type of money hog. Otherwise that can turn into a nasty money pit.
