Dwarf lion fish tankmates

[fu manchu.]

I was wondering if I could house my dwarf lion fish with a clown grouper, sailfin snapper or golden banana/Japanese dragon eel, or possibly an empero snapper

@lion king is great with predators. @Slocke is good with eels! Maybe they will post here. Ive got my dwarf fuzzy with a dwarf angel, marine betta, maroon clowns, wrasse, engineer goby, chromis and 2 firefish. I know you were asking about predators but I thought I would share in case you wanted a more peaceful tank!

Definitely not those eels. I believe they will see that lion as food.

I do not recommend lionfish with fang tooth eels, they are food for them in the wild. The lions semi sedentary lifestyle and slow moving will set them up to be gutted. The groupers and snapper will cause no issues as long as you have a tank large enough and consider the feeding needs of the dwarf lionfish. Dwarf lionfish can be a challenge to feed, and even more of a challenge in a larger tank with aggressive feeding tankmates.
