apparently, they are very forgiving. And I am not sure what gold is charging for them, but they only had a couple more.

I saw them at golds today, very very small. I would never buy a fish that small its like the tangs the size on nikels. I cant see a very good survival rate. But good luck with yours. You have to remember that these lion fish get very large the size of a dinner plate.

Im not sure why people dont put them into reefs, bue maybe some one could provide some inset as to why they are not reef safe.

yeah, I knew it was a crapshoot, but I figured it wasn't a very large risk, if you know what I mean. And, as luck would have it, it eats flak, frozen brine shrimp, and frozen bloodworms.

prognosis is leaning to the good side :P

You probly have a way better chance with the lion then you would with a tang. I think predators are easier to get eating. Should keep keep a picture journal of the growth of the fish, that would be cool.

What size tank is it in?

for now, a 28. for life, likely a larger bowfront, 75gallon+ for certain anyway. If I do not go bowfront, I have many options from 60-90 gallons not in use now.


just discovered, mysis shrimp is eaten quite voraciously

Avoid the dorsal spines. The poison hurts like the #$%$%#@!!! Writing from experience In terms of your corals & clams, yes, I believe they are reef safe. Regarding any shrimp - expensive snacks. But I think the main reason is that as a large predator, it's a waste management problem when it comes to maintaining pristine water quality for your corals.
