He may have died from being fed guppies and stuff like that before you got him. I know that in time feeder guppies and ghost shrimp will have some affect on lionfishs lungs. If fed continually. You may also want to acclimate the new one really really slow. It is a good idea to get the lion before they put it in their tanks. It will save the lion a little stress. Sorry to hear he died.

Everything screwed up so I'm converting to FOWLR. Wish me luck.
