will my lionfish ever give up the hunt?

Will the lionfish ever stop trying to eat my clown fish, banded gobie, and fox face rabbit fish that has been under the same rock since I put the lionfish in. Considering adding a large tang…suggestions.

If the lion thinks it can get either fish into its mouth, then the answere is no.

Not until they've all been eaten. Lionfish don't mix well with fish smaller than itself. Adding a large tang won't make a bit of difference as to whether the lionfish will try to eat the others.

DO SOME RESEARCH! Why did you put a lion with small tankmates? It's really a shame.

I doubt the lionfish will eat the rabbitfish, they have venomous pointy spines.
