Like oil and water, sometimes things just are not made to be mixed. Eventually, your Lionfish will grow big enough to eat Nemo and Nemo will be toast. I don't know anyone that would sell you an Ocellaris or Percula clown knowing you have a Lionfish.
I agree with V, get yourself an already big clown of the Tomato variety.

You'd even need a biggun if you are looking at tomato clowns. Remember, ANYTHING that can, or ventually can fit in the mouth of the Lionfish is game for a future dinner. I've seen others keep large puffers with lions, even eels, but smallish, damsel kind of fish.. dunno about that.
yea i understand, the lions still small but eventually i would have to take the clown out thats if its not to late so ill just stick with big guys or a tomato thanks for the input
Taking the size & territory into account you'll find a tomato will be super aggressive, which as the lion fish grows, chances are the tolerance is already there & it remembers the ass wooping it recieved on more than one occasion from drifting to close to home. Problem is that may work in reverse, when the lion comes of age & gets one back for that large ass wooping it still remembers..lol
our lfs in new york here...if anyone is familiar with Orange county choppers...yea...where they are....has 4 huge clowns...theyre occelaris clowns i belive..but theyre a good 3-3.5 in...thyere like 25$ each...
