LIOn FISH Owners I need help please

[fishykid9212]

Hi I have a 92G FOWLR tank with 2 clowns a hippo tang, a yellow ang and I pajama cardinal. My water quality if perfect and I was wondering if I could put in a dwarf lion fish, and will the lion fish sting any of my fish? Thanks

Anyone???

Would that be a yellow Angler you have?? I would be careful if so, because both lions and Anglers are slow moving and all mouth and one may try to eat the other

oh sorry I think you meant a yellow Tang! IMO you should be fine with a dwarf until it gets big enough to eat your cardinal & clowns

if you get the dwarf small enough he may grow up and not even bother your clowns. Get him started on live shrimp then switch to frozen.

I think you'd be fine. Dwarf Lions are sweet too! I have one and he's so friendly. I swear I call him and he comes to me!

i kept a dwarf with my pair of clowns and multiple other fish that would fit in his mouth, and he never gave them a problem. he lived in a reef tank wiiht plenty of hiding spots, and as long as i fed him, he didnt bother anyone. for 3 months he even tolerated the fire shrimp that perched next to him all day, until i added a cleaner shrimp. within 5 minutes, the cleaner and the fire shrimp were completely eaten. i didnt even see him hit the fire shrimp, i just saw antennas coming out of his mouth. the key is to keeping them fed, so they have no reason to eat anything in the tank. puitting him in last will aslo help out
