    so will you be changing names, since you are no longer devoted to lionfish?

    i'm not sure what type of lionfish you have tried but i found that my luck was w/ the fu manchu lionfish....they stay relatively small and the one I had was very vary hardy and I never had any problems at all....had the guy for 3 years! before deciding to trade him in a go for some non-predatory fish lol
