Defineately!! Congrats!! I didn't know they could be kept with corals and such...I don't know a lot about Lions other than if you can get them eating well and not feeders then you are in the game! We had contemplated getting a Fu Man Chu or a Fuzzy Dwarf but weren't sure they were suitable for our tank. I wouldn't buy until I knew more though, wouldn't want to make a mistake with a fish like that!......Sarah :biggrin:

well he is alright now, only because he is so small. He will grow to about 12" though. We are trying to train him, but as you can see in the video, he completely ignored the frozen silverside. Sometimes we can trick him by feeding a live fish, then dead peice.

he has costs us about $30 to feed him in the week we had him :eek:

Uhm... this MAY seem cruel... but it's reality. Make him wait and eat the silversides... if you keep feeding him ghost shrimp he won't get hungry enough to try... I've been through this one... takes a bit, but much more economical in the long run.. :mrgreen:

Nicely put together video :cool: Cute lion, too :biggrin:

55 MB is pretty large for a video that short. Can you find a way to compress it? A 5 minute downlaod time is too long :neutral:

5 minuts, thats fast compared to the 25 minuts I'd didn't bother to wait.

I'll try and compress it more, I also didn't want to lose any of the quality. video was shot with a Canon GL2.

Cool for sure. Where are you getting the live ghost shrimp? Your tanks looking good! I see where you lost that coffee :eek:

25min to down load? Danny time to upgrade 2min. on shaw cable.

I got the ghost shrimp at petland, they are way too expensive now adays as most of the suppliers stopped carrying them. they are like 3/$7 :eek:

I'm feeding the lion minnows right now, much better at $0.20/each.
