Lion Fish

[Ansphire]

Hey guys..

I want a lion fish...

Can I keep ONE with no other fishes in a 29g tank?...

If I cannot.. can I keep him there for a few months until an upgrade?..

thanks

you can go with a dwarf lion but i wouldent go with a volitan or anything bigger like that.

i have a dwarf there pretty cool you have the choise of fuzzy zebra and fumanchu dwarfs there might be a few more i dont know about but there pretty low maintnance and they have a good personality.

stick with the dward lion as the volitan will eat other small fish in your 29g

You can go with a dwarf lion for sure. Or even a medium size lion like an antenatta.

pretty much will answer most of your lionfish questions

and yes a dwarf lionfish will work in a 29, just ensure the other fish are much larger than the lion and you have no ornamental shrimp
