Dwarf Fuzzy Lion Fish are one of the smaller species of Lionfish. I believe they grow to about 7" if I am not mistake. www.liveaquaria.com has information on all speices of Lionfish as well as prices. As for what other fish you can keep with it? It really all depends some Lionfish are more aggressive then others. I have had Lionfish that would eat smaller fish, and some that just didnt bother to try. So to start off I would only put fish that are larger then its mouth, and since Dwarf Fuzzy Lionfish dont generally get larger then 7" if I am not mistake you could put larger Clown Fish, Larger Tangs , Larger Cardinals. There are multiple options, I would go to www.liveaquaria.com and go to marine fish. Check out all of the fish, if they dont grow generally to big, and they are larger then the Lionfishs' mouth they will work. * Please keep in mind puffers and triggers are not good tankmates. 1 Becasue puffers in most cases will bite at the fins of the Lionfish. 2 Triggers generally get way to big for a 75.
