Think I'm going with Lion.... Easier to catch and place somewhere else.

Lol. It would depend on the eel I guess. My LFS just sold a snowflake eel. Because it wouldn't come out of the rock- the guy got a 10lb rock for 5$. Lol. They couldn't make him buy the rock so that charged an extra 5$.

Do lions need special precautions when netting?

And how often do you need to clean up after the puffer?

Yea definitly don't net the lion and I can't even net the puffer since his spines can get stuck.I do weekly 25 percent pwcs in their current home.
 
He eats the shells on the krill and shrimp. The crab shells he spits out in small pieces so I leave them. The clams I let him gnaw on the shells for a day to wear his beak down then I toss them.
 
Just tested, phosphates are down from .50 to .25.... Thinking of doing a pwc...
 
I'm going with 200 lbs of base and 10 lbs live for my 180. I would guess it depends on how much of a cycle kick start you want to give it.
