Fu Man Chu Lionfish

i cant wait till this saturday to go and get my new fu man chu lionfish.
its about 2 inches long and its going to be an awesome addition to my 60 gallon tank. i got a weaning basket in the tank just for him so i can wean im on to frozen

 

Awesome, Those are my favorite type of lionfish! Best of wishes and hope for pics soon!

 

yea they look awesome
i did alot of reading on them
im getting a few new fish saturday

 

Awesome, Any in particular? or just going to see when you get to the store?

 

Umm, I thought about a sixline and hopefully a clown pair.
My friend has a 65 gallon tank that he is taking down and has a tomini tang.
Would a tang do ok in a 60 gallon tank?

 

short term Id say sure, but not in the long run. there are a few tangs that need a min of 70 gallons, however the should have a larger aquarium. My naso tang will soon outgrow my 120g :s

 

You could probably do one of the baby hippo tangs in your tank for a good long while. They are fairly slow growers.

 

oh ok
but this one is pretty small.
its about 5 inches and fully grown

 

I personally dont see a problem if its a super small tang that stays fairly small at adult age. But most tangs are very active and need LOTS of swimming space

 

yea i know
But my friends tank is a 65 gallon with so much rock that it hardly has any swimming room.
My tank on the other hand has more swimming room.
what kind of fish would you put into a reef tank with the fu man chu?
