Decided to dip my toes into saltwater. Set up, cycled, and established my tank and went with a dwarf lionfish. Is this a dwarf zebra lionfish or dwarf fuzzy lionfish?

looks like a fuzzy how big is he?
 
I was thinking fuzzy but lfs said regular. 2.5-3 inches. He spent last night hiding and he's now exploring the many caves.

Was happy that he was eating his ghost shrimp within a day. He just cruises around moving from cave to cave. Don't think he's staked claim to a particular spot yet. I just can't believe how blue their eyes are

Chilling on a rock...I think he's happy. I'm a little more nervous than usual with this one as it's my first salt water, but he ate ghost shrimp the day after he moved in and hopefully soon he'll be eating frozenuploadfromtaptalk1391478698544.jpguploadfromtaptalk1391478715824.jpg
