Brent, what are the tank mates for your lion again? Trying to look and plan. Tusk will be one, blue jaw trigger, and sailfin is what I got so far. Any advice would help.

Adult engineer goby, adult maroon and yellow clown, powder brown tang(adultish) green spotted puffer, Picasso trigger and niger trigger, and of course tusk. Had a long nosed butterfly but he didn't make it the trick with lions is that they really aren't hard to accommodate at a younger age, its when they get to 8+ investment that they start getting harder. Mines about 6 right now and I wouldn't dare put a juvenile percula or b&w clown in there...it would be lunch. So when you're fish planning make sure you take into consideration a fishes adult size

Got it. The trigger and tang are already bigger then it. I was wondering about a maroon clown...

A MaY will survive the majority of the lifespan..but once the lions full grown the clown may become lunch

Is the wall big enough? lol

 

[huma-huma]

Yep its roughly 7.5-8 ft ..just right

 

[Jlsardina]

Is it wise to have a tank next to the fire???

 

[huma-huma]

Very valid point..luckily its about 3-4 ft away and its a gas fireplace...prob wont use iy

 

[Kio707]

What about the window?

 

[huma-huma]

Im blocking it partially...screw it. Unblocked window or tank?? Lmao

 

[Ricksreef]

Why not mount a big screen tv over the fireplace and slide the aquarium down the wall?LOL

 

[huma-huma]

Rick, stop planting ideas!lol
