Red dwarf fuzzy lionfish
Look who followed me home
 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    Who's that looking at me!

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

 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.

Thanks everyone he's really cool. Right now my grouper is showing a bit more interest in him then I'm comfortable with, but the grouper mostly just stares at the lionfish. Sometimes the grouper will start to move a bit towards the lionfish but whenever this happens my wonderful mean king angel chases him to the back of the tank. It's like the king angel is sticking up for the little lionfish
The grouper showed a bit of interest in my Toby puffer as well when I first got him, however within 2 days the grouper totally lost interest in the puffer. Now the puffer will swim right up to the grouper and the grouper just ignores him. So hopefully it will be the same with the lionfish. Corpusse I have no plans on getting stung so hopefully it wont happen. We rarely put our hands in the tank so it shouldn't be a problem, however if I need to put my hands in the tank I will make sure I know where the lionfish is before I do so.
