I've had the lion for nearly 3 years. The oldest picture I could find of him was from September 2005. Here you can see him with a ~1" astrea snail for scale. I feed him selcon and vita chem soaked silversides, krill, or sometimes clam every second day.
I had a really hard time getting him to eat frozen food at first. I think he nearly died of malnutrition feeding on guppies before I succeeded.

Well this is the Tank Journal forum so I guess I should keep this up to date. I've made some changes to the equipment I'm using, and to the general contents of the tank.
Right now I'm in the middle of cooking most of my liverock in batches to rid my tank of caulerpa, hair algae, GSP and anthelia so things are a bit of a disaster at the moment. I'll post pictures again when I've got everything cleaned up. I'm also reducing the size of my aquascape, removing some of my sand and cutting back on the number of corals to allow for more swimming space for my lionfish and tang.  Equipment: new Neptune Aquacontroller III new Two Sunlight Supply Lumenmax 3 pendants with Phoenix 14K and Blue Wave 7 ballast Precision Marine Bullet 2 Skimmer with Iwaki 55 pump new Precision Marine 622 Calcium Reactor with aquariumplants.com CO2 Regulator Oceans Motions SS Compact new Sequence Dart return pump Mag 12 running a spray bar behind the rocks one new Two Phosban reactor, one for carbon and another for rowaphos new DSB in rubbermaid tub in sump 20gal fuge in sump with Gracillaria Tunze Osmolator for auto top off and DIY Kalk reactor Livestock: Volitan Lionfish Snowflake Moray Eel Purple Tang Copperbanded Butterfly Tomatoe Clown big Sebae anemone 5 Tridacnid clams Green Death Brittle Star Tiger Tail cucumber 9 SPS 11 LPS 5 Softies

I was trying to take some good close up shots of various acros that I have for sale this evening. Unfortunately I succeeded and as a result I discovered that I have F@#$%^G Red Bugs again! I wiped all of these little bastards out over a year ago and now they're back. I've given every new SPS purchase I've made an overnight interceptor bath but it seems that wasn't enough. So once again I have to treat the tank... I'll be following Melev's system again for this one and starting my first treatment tonight. http://www.melevsreef.com/redbugs.html
