hey everyone. I might be getting a new tank (75 gallons maybe. ) soon. I was thinking of getting bigger fish since I only have a 13.5 gallon right now with 2 clowns and a damsel. I really want a dwarf lion but don’t know what fish are compatible. I would also want a lot of smaller to medium sized fish that are colorful. I know that if I want a lot of smaller fish then I probably can’t get the lion. What do you think is more worth it? A lion with some other fish or a lot of smaller and more colorful fish? It’s going to be a while (1 year or more) before I get the bigger tank and I want to start brainstorming now so would appreciate any advice thks.

PS If I cannot get the lion I am also thinking if seahorses what fish can go with them?

I think small fish are "safe" if a lion can't swallow them with ease. Also, I wouldn't mix seahorses with fish because they can't compete for food given their slow swimming speed IMHO.

So many choices and good that you are researching various species. There are some thoughtful opinions on this forum as to compatibility.
