I recently acquired a Pterois radiata and he is about two inches and looks perfectly healthy. I was wondering if anyone has any experiences with these fish they could share.

IME a very touchy lionfish, but incredibly beautiful. They take a good long time to wean over (so stock up on your live ghost shrimp), and during this time tend to be fragile til they get established.
You can read about my experiences w/ them and all the other lionfish species here:
