Suitable Tank

Question
Hey there!

What would be a suitable tank for these fish: Radiata Lion fish, Volitan Lion fish, Yellow Tang, Blue Regal, and a Snowflake eel? I was think about a tank around 250 gallons. I was going by 3 gallons per 1 inch rule. I also went by the max length the fish would get.

Answer
Hello,

sorry for the delay in answering your quesiton.  Your question went into the question pool for some reason.


I dont follow the inches per gallon rule, but rather, just like you did, try to anticipate the size of the fish when it is full grown.

A 250 gallon tank will be perfect.

good luck


Bill
