So I have a 55 gallon FOWLR with 1 snowflake eel about 6-7" and 1 fuzzy dwarf lion. I was just wondering if there was another fish I could add to put more color into the tank or if I am fully stocked. Thanks
 
It would have to be something large enough that your current inhabitants would not look at it as a snack. With a 65 g, Tangs, Angels, Rabbitfish, Triggers, etc are all out. Maybe a Toby Puffer? A lot will have to do with filtration and maintaining parameters. Lions and snowflakes are messy eaters.
 
I have a bm curve 5 protein skimmer and fuge. For flow I have 2 mp10's.
 
How often do you change your water? I'm running two predator tanks currently and I do a 50% on my 29g and a 25% on my 125 bi-weekly.. Your water changes will determine what you can have..
 
You would need something big enough so the lionfish doesn't eat it.. Maybe a larger size wrasse?? How long have you had your tank set up for? Is it fully cycled?
