The thing with lions is that we may not be able add other fishes, esp small ones, into the community. Unfortunately, pple tend to suffer from the IBS (Impulsive Buying Syndrome), and may not be able to control the urge of acquisition. So the prize will likely end up as food in the lions' stomach, rather than a pet in the tank. :(

Yeah agree - thinking of either getting a tank with lions only or with clown trigger

Your lions can only withstand hunger for 2 weeks. So if you are not coming home, I suggest you mail me your keys so that I can help myself to transfer your lions (tanks and accessories as well) to my office. :pirate::evil:

Hey bro,

haahaaahaaaaa i guess i'm coming home tomorrow:( currently in Aussieland heeheee. I've done what i came here to do and that was sweet. So i reckon no need for the keys now haaahaaahaaaa.

Hey Angry

I was relooking at your tanks pics, and noticed that you have a sun coral in your tank. Knowing the depth of your tank, how do you target feed the polyps?

Hey bro,

it's hard work man, i use a pippette (if i spelled it correctly) with a connecting tube hose to reach it, has been good for awhile now and i actually got another sun coral that is also doing fine. It's just hard work i guess and pretty much messy at times:)

hi,

bro volitan is correct. Its really hard when you wana add more fishes to the tank knowing that they will eventually end up as food for the lions:) But hey, the good news is, you will only need some lions and nothing else to beautify that tank. Opps, i think other reefers will kill me if i go on haahaahaaa

:yeah::yeah:

Initially I thought of selling it, as it was very difficult to get it to feed. To make things worse, it only take live food!!! Luckily, tried ur idea and got it to eat frozen liao!

Tried again today, and still worked. Couldnt be happier, man. B)

yeah bro, haaahaahaaaa come to think of it.

Bro,

I think the angler is now easier to feed compared to your sun corals. Best part is that it does not hide behind that rocks at all. Looks like it has marked its turf at the front part of my tank. :D:D

Finally just bought my 1st lion! A dwarf fuzzy slightly less then 3" big. Sortof reddish brown in colour. Think he got a hard time swimming in the tank as water flow seems too strong for him.

Anyone spot any small dwarf zebra or antennata selling in LFS recently?
