Lionfish and Shark combination?

[lendz]

Will a lionfish and a bamboo shark,catshark work in my tank? I am planning to add one.

Thanx.

It is a common mix. The only concern is the lionfish accidenly stinging the sharks during a food frenzy. I'd give it a try.

im waiting for my tank to be ready. im adding a shark and a lionfish and maybe a ray what do u think

I don't have any hand on, but I wouldn't mix the lion with the shark. The ray and shark is a good mix.

I had a horn shark die from a lionfish sting. What a bummer that is. I would not do it.

Probably in his 350. Sorry for answering for you if I'm wrong.
Here is a thread with the tank.

Yes. I will be adding it in my 350gal. But will transfer my bamboo in my soon to be shark pond this year.

So to add a lionfish or not?

I wouldn't risk it.

Too Many potential problems with keeping Sharks & Lions together.
