I am getting blue Mirrored Acrylic for the back of my 300, I placed a large mirror to the tank so could check for aggression. My lions wanted to group with themselves, my trigger was fine, it was my male Bird wrasse that had a problem but the female was fine. I left the mirror and in a few...

This issue worked for me, the last issue did not, I kept freezing. Kaye

Hmmm I Did Not Say to release It!!!! I made a statment about what I remember reading a few years back, that is what having a discussion is all about................ Kaye

I always understood that the shark is the only fish that can be released back into the waters as long as it was native to that area. I remember reading a discussion on this a few years back. Kaye

Sorry I wanted to add: What are you feeding this lion? Any live freshwater fish? How often are you feeding it? Kaye

Ok a Volitan, 2 eels & a trigger in a 55g, Look close at the fins are any nipped? What kind of Eels & trigger do you have this lion with. Most eels & triggers prey upon lions..... It may be getting harassed by the others housed with this lion, lions are pretty hearty, I would say if your...

I have to go with not feeding for 5-6 days, than try frozen Silversides on your feeding stick. I have a fuzzy that ate frozen foods in no time & one that took months of working with him. I fed Ghost shrimp gut loaded with cyclopezee every few days than I would not feed for so many days. I even...

I don't work at a LFS but my lions have never show aggression, the tangs I used to own were much more aggressive than any of my lions. I went into my LFS a few days ago loking at a Trigger they had in and this customer comes in, I started talking to this guy who has a 7 gallon Nano, he was in...

Cool Fish you have, I would set up a tank just for it....... KAye

I did buy a cowrie a few years ago and was told it will eat the foot of my anemone so I took it out and took it back to the LFS. They will eat anemones get it out of the tank a.s.a.p........... Kaye

The Fu Manchu is tougher to get on frozen foods compared to the fuzzy, the Fuzzy will be less shy also. What if you skip the lion all together and get a few Leaf Scorpionfish. They only get about 4 inches, come in different colors (browns, blacks, yellows, reds) and can go in groups. Just a...

I would say the Wrasse over the puffer just because puffers are known to pick at the fins of lions. I have a Pinktail & Bird Wrasse with my Lions and the mix has been fine. What Dwarf lion are you looking to add? Kaye

Yes! That is a beauty, I almost bought one of those, they are striking in color. Kaye

Beautiful fish!!! What size do those get? Kaye

You can have a volitan but I would not mix it with certain fish. I keep a mated pair of Bird wrasses with mine and a Tassled File which you might want to look at also. My filefish is such a cool fish with a non stop personality, I will say I love my Lions & Tassled! Here is a great lion...
