Are fuzzy dwarf lionfish reef safe ?

They're reef safe with caution. That being said they eat all types of inverts that they are able too and fuzzy dwarfs still get pretty large so small fish will be eaten as well. But I do love them. And if those first two things don't concern you then you're probably good.

K thanks the reason I am asking cause I want to start a large FOWLR for big scorpionfish lions and puffers but I love fuzzy dwarf lions but I am scared it would get bullied and would fit in better in a reef tank

He'd probably fair better in the fowlr tank. What size will it be? And adding it as the first ones would be a good idea.

But the over fish in there would be like false stonefish and porcupine and dogface puffer and also bigger lions would they bully it ?

I've seen one volitan eat another, slightly smaller one. Most of it stuck out of his mouth. He digested it slowly over a period of several days and it slowly went into the bigger one's stomach.

Try to match sizes in your FOWLR.

Yeah. That's pretty gruesome. My understand is lionfish of different types should be okay together. I love the sound of this tank though. It'll be amazing for sure. When putting all of those fish together though, it wouldn't surprise me to hear about one eating the other. The fact is we're dealing with living animals. And it's impossible to guantee anything.

Also could you put a eel in to
