Red dwarf fuzzy lionfish
 
Look who followed me home :mrgreen: Actually I've been wanting a lionfish for awhile now, I was just waiting until I found one that looked healthy and was eating mysis like a pig. I was thinking of getting a radiata but when I went and saw him he looked pale and had stopped eating so I decided to wait until I found a lionfish that was eating. Glad I waited because the one I got is super cute :mrgreen:

I just love how red he is

And for an idea of how big he is (or should I say isn't since he's still sort of small) this is him by a korallia 4

Like a pig :hungry: That's why I bought him. I asked the guy working there to feed the tank and I saw the lionfish eat the mysis right away, he ate at least 10 pieces of mysis while I was watching him. There was another one for sale that was also eating mysis however he was really small, like half the size of the one I bought.

Very nice. I love my lion. Just be careful not to get stung. Mine finally got me last week. Didn't hurt too much but you won't know if you're allergic until it happens...
