Shark and lion

[Juggler]

I need the final answer.
i have a baby bamboo in my 180 can i keep a volitan lionfish with her or not?

heard too many opinions but want to hear more. and experiences.

No sharks are known to have poor eye sight and will bump in to the lion fish .

[Juggler]

how about a panther grouper?

[devils_rejects]

they get big and are messy eaters . If you can keep up with the bio load it might be ok . You do understand they get big and ugly and dont stay the white with pretty black spots ?

[Juggler]

they do though they just get brown patches i thought?

A grouper will work but do not add a lionfish.I would get a saddle grouper.

i have had a shark (epaulette) and a very large lionfish in my 375 for a few years new had a problem, but then again my shark doesnt swim around on the top much except during feeding, and my lion moves when the shark comes out
