    well, i need a fish for my 55 gallon. its empty and ready for fish! i know i want a dwarf lionfish, but besides that im empty. dwarf lions around here are few and far between so im really wanting something else first. i was think a tomini, kole, or yellow tang, since they wont be eating what the lions are. but im just not sure. so any ideas would be awesome, and of course K+ to ideas.

    The tangs are a bit too big and active for a 3 foot long tank.

    55 gals are 4 foot. But a tang would still be too big.
