If u have a good skimmer you can always dose vodka to your aquarium to help u maintain ur
Nitrate levels

Criminal! You gotta be 21!

I want a fu Manchu lion fish. They only get 3-4 inches right?

 

[Khij159753]

Yeah I'm only 18 and I think they can reach 6" max? I'm not 100% sure.

One shot for them, one shot for you... lol

 

[Khij159753]

Yeah. Sounds about right

Typically 4 to five I think. The smallest. I hear they can be a little challenging

 

[Khij159753]

Why challenging?

" This dwarf species is one of the more difficult of the Lionfish to maintain as it is often difficult to adapt to a captive diet."

 

[Khij159753]

Ah. I see. Well hopefully mine will it frozen. Although I will be feeding some live

dwarf fuzzies, from what i've read (which I've been doing A LOT of reading on lions) are a lot easier. Although I definitely understand if you want what you want and have no intention of changing it. That's how I can be.

 

[Khij159753]

Well will a dwarf fuzzy be fine in a 55? I'm not 100% set in stone till its in my tank haha. But elude kinda got me liking the fu Manchu. I originally was looking into gettin a dwarf fuzzy but thought someone said they'd get too big.

 

[lamby]

Lol funny thing I know this is off topic but because of the usa their trying to bring the drinking age from 18 to 21 in Australia

 

[lamby]

and wouldnt dosing alchol in an aquarium be bad as the acid levels in it are to high

 

[Khij159753]

Nope. As long as you have an over powered skmmer.

A fuzzy dwarf would definitely work in a 55 IMO. People keep them in 30's (although I wouldn't personally) But any dwarf species would work. They perch on rocks a lot and are not active swimmers at all. I also hear they are more personable.
