Debating on Lion Fish

Reefing newb
I am contemplating a dwarf lion fish for my 55 gallon. I currently have an orange line cardinal, a flame angel, and yellow watchman goby. Anyone have much experience with these? I am wondering if it would eat my other fish or if they only eat tiny fish.
 
They will eat anything they can fit in there mouth, which is disturbing large. He might leave the other fish alone, he might not. Depends on the individual fish.

Personally, i would pass
 
they get big really fast. He may be small and swimming with the fish happily, but a month later he will start chasing, and after that its only a matter of time. Eventually id like to get mine a corner tank of his own.
 
You probably wouldn't have any problems with the Fuzzy Dwarf. At lest not for a while.
But keep in mind too,all new additions after him will have to be thought out carefully.
