I put a prawn in my tank last night and it got the Lion Fish excited, but
the dumb thing mistook a small hermit crab for a prawn and ate it hole. What
can I do ?, the shell is in it's guts now. Being a poisonous fish I didn't
want to grab it and pull the thing out.

Lets hope acid in its stomache will be strong enough to soften the shell...
I do not think you can do anything other that watch what happen at this time.

Well a few days have passed, and the lump in the lion fishes gut is gone.
And it's still alive.

That was a tence  time.
