Lions and angler?
I snagged up a 60g cube (24" x 24" x 24") and I was originally thinking seahorse tank but I am kind of tossing that idea because of the time and difficulty required. So my next idea was a tank with a couple dwarf lions and I had thought maybe a black angler or one of those or a frogfish. I am very unfamiliar with the anglers and things of this nature, would that be a combo I could do in this size tank? I know I cant push too much but thats a decent size tank for such inactive fish, just dont know how many I can push it

Or even just a trio of lions? Will the tank be big enough for that?
And also, any suggestions for other cool fish to put in with the lions? |

I have a Dwarf Zebra and a Dwarf Fuzzy lion in a 40 breeder and they are doing well so I would think 3 in a 60 would work.

do they get along ok? If I had a couple fuzzys and a zebra would they all be ok together?
After reading some of that angler/frogfish thread, I am second guessing myself on the difficulty of them. I dont want to put a fish in knowing it may die, but it would be cool to try I think. thoughts anyone? |

I put the Fuzzy in first and a couple of months later (after converting him to frozen) I put in the Zebra. At first the Fuzzy tried to be a slight bully but after a couple of months they are best buddy's. This was my experience, not sure if its typical. I would love to add a Fu Man Chu but think that would be too much in a 40.

What about an antennata? Anyone know how one of those would do with a fuzzy?

Thank you! They have been happy as the only inhabitants of my 40 Breeder.
