Lionfish feeding regime

[Ananth]

Planning to get a Miles lionfish ( in the process of setting up the tank). I am planning to have live freshwater mollies and occasional live ghost shrimp ( availability is a concern here)


Is this feeding regime fine?

Also how often should I feed the fish?

@lion king can give you some advice on this.

The miles is one that doesn't necessarily need live food, they usually adapt well to a variety of dead foods that would meet their dietary requirements. You can find much info on lionfish care by clicking my name and "find all threads".

I'm a health nut if you haven't noticed, this also translates to my pets. Today I will cover some of the dead foods I feed and why, with some nutritional info that I recall off the top of my head. This is by no means all the foods you can feed, these are just the ones I include in my feedings...
