+cyrus Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 where are you getting live krill? is he in the 29 or 55g? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 I've had the krill. But the aquadome. I no longer have the 55 up and running. I only have the 29 gallon. He in the 29 gallon with a Clark clown, a pipefish and corals one hermit crab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cyrus Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 if its a Volitan lion your tank is to small and he's unhappy. For a tank that size you want a dwarf or fu manchu. A Volitan would be fine in a 55-75g for a while but they grow out to vollyball size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
