mine will only eat things that can fit in his mouth or almost in his mouth! even if the food hangs out a little bit he will eat it. I have mine with a engineer goby which is about 3 inches long a copperband butterfly and a sea goblin. all of which are smaller than him but he cant eat em. he doesnt even bother them at all. Just depends what size the others are in your tank
and how big the lion is.

Thanks is an awesome fish, expensive but worth it since they seem to be very rare. I have never seen one before.
