This probably gets asked 10 times a week but, dwarf lionfish; will it eat an ocellarus clown and pajama cardinals? Considering getting one but these 3 fish (and a large box crab, yellow tang, and skunk cleaner shrimp) are already in the 125 gallon tank so idk if its safe with them or something I should wait on (and possibly get a larger species with the space).

My dwarf fuzzy seems to be very well behaved. I got her when she was under an inch. But she is in a tank with firefish, gobies, a smaller maroon clown who I am trying to pair with my maroon female, a small damselfish, a mandarin dragonet and chromis as fish she could eat. She also doesnt bother cleaner shrimp. She hasnt so much as looked at another small fish as dinner, so best answer is maybe on the fuzzy, but it depends on the individual fish. I really lucked out with my girl shes the perfect lionfish with her behavior

Ive had her 4 months now and shes grown considerably and is still very well behaved
