do u think its possible having 4volitan 2stonefish n 2 eel in a tank its going to be a predator tank..

I think it is possible .. depending on how big is your tank .... I have 1 volitan, 3 froggies, 1 ribbon eel and a stonefish in my tank. :D

Not too sure whether will your lions eat your stonefish though when they grow too big.

Tx, bro.

Have visited the 5 or 6 shops but cannot find any live shrimp .... do see quite a lot of live milk fish though, with a minimum size of at least 3 inches .... cannot feed my fish ..... too big :cry2:

Hi guys, I'm back with info on why putting your hand in hot water helps :)

The venom injected into our bloodstream is a kind of protein, so putting your hand in hot water (as hot as you can stand) would result in the protein structure becoming denatured, so you won't feel the pain anymore! :D

u need to comb the entire area dude, or ask ard which shops have.

If not visit the one at geylang , also can visit AA at the same time (few shops away) .

Be careful of the frogs:) I had one that took my 9" volitans and passed on two days later due to indigestion:( So there you go, i lost both precious at one go. Stonefish is slightly more docile that the frog which is very unpredictable. Dun be fooled by its look. And by the way, thats too heavy a bioload, you dun have to feed these predators everyday, i fed mine once every three days.

sad to say...my lion ambition failed to take off...

my lion up heaven riao..cos not feeding...sad sad oreally :(

:( omg sorry bro. You have to use live food to entice them to feed first. Volitans are much muach easier. But space is mandatory.
