Check out my newest addition. I got him at one of my lfs for $50!!! He came in a a Fu Manchu lion and I know the owner so I got to buy it at that price. He is about 10" long and his rays are about 13-14" when fully extended. Just to give you an idea of the mass of this fish...the Moray in the lower left hand corner is a 3 foot moray.

That is beautiful - can't wait until mine grows up a little bit!
How big is the tank you have the lionfish & the moray in?

He's gonna get a lot bigger. My dad had a black volitan that was 18" long. Absolute terrors!!! You're gonna have to keep an eye on him when you clean the tank when he gets to that size.

Whoa...this thread came back from the dead. :D
Thanks for the comment. My salt tank is a 6x2. I'll probably upgrade to a 240 when I move, but I don't have too much in there that needs immediate attention.

Yeah, he's much bigger now. This thread is almost a year old, so he has GROWN. He broke the 1 foot mark...and he make cleaning the tank quite a project. He's so people oriented that he won't leave you alone when you're working. His dorsal has rubbed on my a few times, but he hasn't made any moves to actually inject venom...I think he's just interested in if I'm going to feed him or not. :D

Thanks. I do have some more pics...I'll post some this weekend. He hasn't broken the 3' mark, but he is one fat snowflake...I can tell you that much. :ROFL:
nice lion
Thanks flux.
cute! :D
Thanks princess...interesting avatar...as usual. ;)

My dad's tried to bite his hand whenever he was cleaning. Yours sounds more docile than his, so I don't think you have anything to worry about.

seems we have the same taste when it comes to alot of out fish ksb. I have a black voltain (just a little guy, 8 inches including fins) and a snowflake moray as well (also around 8 inches)

pretty fish . . . i have always wondered how much of a risk they are to keep due to the sting.
