I have heard that you can slowly convert a freshwater silver tipped shark into a saltwater shark , is this true , if soo how?? and would that be a good idea if i have a blue damsel, and am planning to get a lion fish and a clown?? Also do you think a lion fish would be good for a 47 gallon tall???

lose the damsels and clowns, they will be lunch.
 
i agree and watch the lion and shark might be aggression between them acclimate it very slowly
 
a dwarf lion possibly... a reg lion no way in hell...sry bro
 
i planned to stack my life rock up to almost the top of 47 gallon when i get it , and have coral with in it, if i do that do you think a lion is still optional since there wouldnt be as much room , i really want one though , some pictures of a close set up would be great!!!
 
For one it should be AT LEAST 75 gallons.
A Yellow dwarf lionfish should work though, not sure about with the catfish though..

Yellow dwarf.. sorry about the size..

another fish added to my list
 
The silver-tip can reach a foot or more and they are constantly swimming, they are pretty laid back, but when it comes to feeding time they can be voracious eaters and will eat until there stomach is very bloated. They are a great fish.

They're pretty docile. I'de think there wouldn't be too much to worry about as long as they have ample room for living.
