Dwarf Lionfish are originally from the waters of the Indo-Pacific Ocean. Dwarf Lionfish grow to a length of around 7 inches at full maturity and should be kept in an aquarium of at least 30 gallons in size to provide this fish plenty of living room. Dwarf Lionfish are Carnivores and should be fed a steady diet of live shrimp, feeder fish, crustaceans, and other meaty preparations. The Dwarf Lionfish can be aggressive, so you should be careful of the other fish that you place with it. We only recommend that the experienced aquarium owner care for this fish, as it is venomous.
