Will a Lionfish eat other fish in my tank and do I have to feed it stuff like other fish?

Yes, they will eat other fish and invertebrates. You do need to feed it these things as well - lionfish are predators. You may have too start with live fish, unless you can find one in a store that's already eaten frozen (which will be a lot more convenient). Proper diet is the hardest thing about keeping them. Too many people feed them goldfish, which they'll eat but are poor nutritionally. Frozen silversides are a better choice. And be careful how much you feed - most owners give their fish way too much!
See this link - once it gets through types of lions, it has some good info on feeding and nutrition: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/dendrochirus.htm
