Lionfish died while I was asleep

Yeah thanks Jim. Thank you, I was just wondering because he's saying that even those have bad effects.

You must not read my post carefully, I have stated for years if you want to keep dwarf and medium bodied lions long term; you feed them live guppies, mollies, and ghosties. While most can't keep them for a year, people that maintain a live diet including the aforementioned choices can keep them their full wild lifespan of 10-15 years. I have made challenge after challenge for years and still have never meet anyone keeping these species of lions on a dead only diet for as long as 2 years. The fu manchu is an especially difficult case, they rarely ever live more than a few months on a dead only diet. I'm posting a thread later to examine why I became such staunce advocate of feeding a live diet to the family of scorpaenidae.
