Can frog fish be kept with a dwarf fuzzy lion?

Depends on the frog. Some get big enough to eat the lion. How much experience do you have with saltwater predators. Both the fish you want are fairly difficult to keep. Frog fish are finicky eaters and can eat themselves to death literally so they either starve or explode in my experience.
 
I would only feed your frogfish 2 or 3 times a week depending on how much you feed him at one time. They are gluttons it is true especially the Sargassum fish which is a terrible choice with your lionfish as he gets much bigger than the lion and will eat the lion. If the frogfish is a real small specimen feed just a couple of small pieces of food at first or a couple of feeder fish depending on how it goes. It is easier to overfeed. A larger specimen will need more food at one time. I would start with the lionfish first and make sure he is eating well before adding the frogfish.

I know I would only feed it once or twice a week. I'd get them only after I get my100 reef. Since right now I am using my cube as a growout and later predator tank. I will research salt predators more, I know basics. But I just wanna know is tank size ok. Btw, I would probably get the yellow, red or orange frogfish, they shouldn't get big enough to eat the lion.
