STOCKING

(Anything with a (?) next to it, is to be approved by you guys!)

Fuzzy Dwarf Lionfish

I really don't know what I can put in the tank that'd be friendly to the main attraction. So let me know guys!

 

Whered you find that deal???

 

It's actually my uncle's old tank It'll need a good cleaning and maybe a re-seal. I need to drill it, and I'm horrified about drilling a tank that old

 

Fuzzy Dwarf Lionfish

Painted Angler - these are really species only fish or a tank planned with them being the center of attention. A little walnut of a guy can take down small children if they walk too close to the tank. But he could honestly eat everything you put on your list.

Occy Clown Pair w/ RBTA - I've seen an adult fuzzy take down an adult clown. It's a risk, but it's only a damsel, right (only kidding).

Flame Angel - angels are pickers and the lions fins will be like flowing cotton candy. So, you know how some are ok with corals and some of the same species are not.... same goes here.

Bluefin Angel - see above

I don't know enough about the different temperaments of the different species of dwarf angels to say if one would be better than another.

 

If the pane you're drilling isn't tempered, age of tank should not be a problem.

Did you see that video of someone recently who drilled the back wall of a smaller tank- forgot what size,
He was so careful, he actually got a hole drilled in it, then Crash- small bits everywhere- it was tempered!

 

Darn, most angels are going to be a problem then. I want big pretty fish xD Can The fuzzy dwarf be housed with other lions or scorps?

 

Let me know what makes a good tank mate for a Fuzzy Dwarf, Maybe a Girlfriend?

 

If you can get a male/female pair that would be awesome! and how about a dwarf golden moray eel? that's what i am going to get to put with my dwarf zebra lion when i start my second tank. if i can afford it!

 

Can a Snowflake and a Fuzzy Dwarf get along?

 

Yea but snowflakes get aggressive the bigger they get. So might have a problem down the road as it matures.
