adding lionfish

[deeboi]

hello all...i have a lionfish i've had for a few months now. he's already been thru a lot after being thru an ich outbreak. question is i noticed that he's not as active as when i first got him. i want to maybe add another lionfish to the tank to maybe make him more active. would i run into trouble or possible problems with aggression by add another lionfish? tia. tank by the way is a 135g.

IME; lions usually get along very well together. I wouldn't expect adding another to "liven" up the one you have; I think they co-exist well, but mostly ignore each other. Do think your lions slowing down is just "settling in" and he doesn't have a secondary infection, etc. from the ich? How long has the tank been ich free? Lions are very hardy fish; I'd be sure he's ok before adding another.
