depends on your tank capacity, lionfish is very high bioload fish caused they are require to be feed very frequently and they are carnivors.... 50 gallon water is require to support 1 lionfish. Of course, you could overload your tank but the water changing is really no joke...

does the lion fish needs corals n LR?

LR yes or no, LR is more for filtration & landscaping purpose. Coral? no, they dun require.

can i keep lion fish without the LR n corals?

as per answer no. 2

wats the best food for lion fish?

hey tigershark..

how true isit that u need 50 gallons for one lionfish? i got a mini lion... and only about 15 gallons of water... being a 2 feet tank... how??

Vincent Ho :thanks:

i did keep a lionfish in a 2'x1'x1' tank before ard 2 yrs ago (pic in arofanatics gallary under tigershark) it was the 1st SW fish keep by me, the nitrate level rise up very fast and water need to be change everyweek in terms to keep the nitrate below 60ppm even though i tried my best to control the feeding (feed once every 3 days only).If you dun mide to do wat i did- keep changing water so frequently, it is not a big issue.......

I think he is talking about 50 gallon per an adult lion. Currently i'm doing 40 gallon per adult lion. Its seriously no joke about their bioload and water changing.

Actually I dun think its that bad compared to a Cowfish, which is a poo machine.

Why do we use "My 2 cents worth" when 1 cents are not legal tender in Singapore anymore? Shouldn't it be 5 cents worth?

"Its easier to blame the 'mantis' or crabs in the tank for missing & dead livestocks.."
