Did you see the tiny one Ken had in a few weeks ago, sooooooo cute. I'll be getting a dwarf fuzzy once my tank is ready.

The fuzzy dwarf he had in a few weeks ago my boyfriends Dad bought, he doing great and eats mysis. It's part of what started getting me thinking about lionfish. I was there on Sunday and he had 3-4 fuzzy dwarfs one was a nice red one.

They are great when they aren't eating their tankmates.

We try to get ours to eat mysis and siversides before they leave the store. My dwarf zebra sleeps with his pet cromis near his mouth at home.

Not sure how they do against large tankmates but my dwarf defended itself against my hand extremely well

I have had it over year with no issue what so ever

No small fish in that tank, my bursa trigger is the smallest and he's about 2-3 inches. The other fish in there are fairly large, my king/passer angel, miniatus grouper, foxface, emperor angel, and lunare wrasse.

So Ken, when you get the Fu manchu in next week, be sure to train him really good for me, ok
