Yellow Dwarf Lionfish okay with SPS?

[unbreakable]

are they okay with SPS corals and will they eat snails like ceriths, nass, margarita?

YEs...
lionfish could care less about corals and non moving inverts. So they are truely reef-safe. However, I would call them more like reef limiting, in that they will limit your tankmates (they will try to eat anything that will fit into its mouth).

But if your other tankmates are larger--no problem.

Got pictures?/ have you read the lonfish info sheet yet? (http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2002-11/fm/feature/index.php) I posted photos of my yellow dwarf fuzzy

i dont have pictures, but the lfs had two dwarfs and right away you could tell one was yellow while the other one was just brownish/red. the one i saw didnt have a large head like the one in the picture though. i told the LFS to hold onto the yellow dwarf while i found out some more info on it to make sure it was reef safe. also showed me that it was eating these flakes they had

i have a full grown YWG, a bue damsel with yellow tail, and a royal gramma. all of them are always hiding unless its time to eat

A lionfish is going to be a challenge in a SPS 28/14g, due to the heavy bioload.

ive got an octopus needlewheel 150 in the 20 gallon sump. the pump is mesh modded, drilled a larger venturi and drilled out the elbow. ive got some chaeto in the refugium and ill be getting a phosphate reactor tomorrow.

you think my tank will be able to keep up with it?
