Id really like to get a dwarf lion. Right now Iv'e got an empty ( ) 10g and I think thats a little small for a lion. What do you think?

i think that could work but it might be a bit small and you would probally want a skimmer or you could get some type of small wasp fish or scorpionfish.

thank you!
weeber, what size tank do you have your lion in?

i had a small volitan in a 14 gallon Bio cube but a volitan should by no means be kept in a tank that size permenantly time.

thank you!

you should really try and get a bigger tank if you want to keep even a dwarf lion. IMO 30 would be the min even though they dont really move. they're very dirty fish(they eat a lot) though so your going to have problems keeping water quality in check.

yea 30plus for a dwarf for life

i have mine in a 30 and i want to go bigger. trites and trates are always a bit high in there

get a wasp fish. way cooler imo

waspfish need even bigger tanks brosky.
they're much more active than Lions.

red fin waspfish are smaller. only 3-4 inches

You cannot keep any lion successfully over a long-term period in a 10g tank. They are messy eaters that produce tons of waste that will quickly pollute the water.

yupp. thats what i was tryina get at

if your looking for preds go with a anglerfish

+1 those guys can actually live in a 10g for a long time...

Angler is definitely the best option if you're looking for some type of a predator for a 10 gallon.

Go for a wartskin angler. They don't even look real. A 10g is way too small for a dwarf lionfish.

Thanks everybody!
