 Lion fish and cleaner shrimp I was wondering if a lion fish will eat a cleaner shrimp. I had eels with a cleaner and they never touched it. I would like to add a lion fish. What do you think? Thanks!!  |

| Re: Lion fish and cleaner shrimp absolutely will and the rumor of a lion eating only what can fit in his mouth I dont go by. Mine eats anything half the size of his body for instance he ate a 3 inch blenny last night and the lion is about 6-8 inches long. I have decided not to feed him any more 20 dollar bills. |

| Re: Lion fish and cleaner shrimp I have had a 5-6 in lion a dogface puffer and a clown trigger in a 54 gal corner with 1 cleaner shrimp and a red fire shrimp. The shrimp were the 1st in the tank and then added the puffer,trigger, then the lion and never had any probs at all... Until i added a wolf eel (STUPID CHOICE!!!!) and the eel ate the shrimp the 2nd night it was in there. |
