FW LIONFISH general info.

[Littleman707]

Hes about 6inchs and is living in a brackish water and i was wondering could i switch him slowly to freshwater? and if i can when would be the best time yo do it?

He'll be healthier & live longer in BW.
Why not keep him there?

 

[Littleman707]

i got a bigger tank and it can be all his but i really want it to be freshwater.

Then you should find this fish a BW home & stock the tank with FW fish. You have a BW fish. Where did it come from?

in this german brackish book it labels some freshwater species of lionfishes but urs is a grunting toadfish wich reqiers brackish water i will find the scientific names of the freshwater species

if anything, depending on the species, it might be better off in salt water than in even brackish
