he will be fine i have a sixline and a lionfish and they leave each other alone. And this is in a 50g cube so not a huge tank. |

I think Brett is crazy.  I'd say that six line has a good 5 minutes before he gets inhaled. Not one that I would risk if you ask me. Adam ------------- Come to a meeting, they�re fun! |

wow they got more in fast. LOL myself and fishnfresh bought the last two they had not to long ago.. And the price went up ten bucks... But, yeah once the lion is bigger he will for sure much him down and any other fish that looks tempting. Mine is a smaller one and has already tried to eat my Bangi... So not sure how long I will be keeping him. Maybe I will trade him or sell him and get me a Fu Manchu dwarf. Do have to say that these guys are very beautiful fish. And keep in mind each time that you put your hand in the tank that you now have a venomous fish. I forget that a lot, but at the same time kind of want to get stung so I can better understand how this feels. ------------- Molon Labe Si vis pacem, para bellum |
