:Buddy,
: For years many people cycled tanks with lionfish(you should know that if you have been an aquarist for 43 years).
:Yes a 55G tank is definitly to small except for dwarf lions.
:I was reading another post by you and saw that you spent over $10k on a 180G reef, ouch.
:My 340G(72x30x36) custom freestanding Tenecor reef-ready is cycling with 285 lbs fiji live sand and 360 lbs kaelini live rock is at $9.45k.
:A 9" volitanz lion and 18" snowflake moray waiting to move from their 55G show(future quarantine tank).
:Nitrates are at 5ppm thanks to 3 crocea clams in the 55G.
yes i know all that, but why let a beginner risk it??
And he didnt want the gwarf, you know this right? He want`s a lionfish that grows 15".... And i too have Gaint clams and i understand they help reduce nitrate levels.
