trigger fish

I was wondering if i can put a red tail triggerfish ( or a different triggerfish) in a 70 gallon tank with corals.

I awoke this morning to find my Beautiful trigger has white lesions on his head back to his spike at the top, his nose has a scrap and also the lenght of the top spike has a scrap mark but he about 7 spot marks which are at the same location, I have a bristle star fish which stays under a rock...

I'm considering setting up a FOWLR with triggers, is it possible to mix a clown trigger, huma, Niger, ect.... The colors and patterns of these fish are incredible, pics and advice are welcome

Today I lost my beloved blue jaw trigger who jumped out during the night, idk what would cause him to jump I wasn't running moonlights so maybe something spooked him. Sad day such a unique and beautiful fish, today's project my egg crate top for tank to prevent future mishaps. I want to replace...

Hi I have a 250 gallon fowler tank and I really like triggerfish but can't find very many kinds. I now have Niger trigger, a red tail trigger, a huma huma trigger,and a clown trigger, are there any other really cool kinds of triggers you guys have or have heard about?

thanks in advance

Well, I'm sure you guys are getting sick of me putting up so many threads and asking questions :rolleyes: but here's anouther! So I've had my eye on a male blue throat trigger at my LFS. So, you probably know what I'm going to ask next....is a 90 gallon big enough for this trigger? Here's my...

I have a question for anyone who might be able to answer it. I currently have a 80gal bowfront with a 20gal tall sump, with a pair of maroon clowns a dwarf lionfish and a just added lawn mower blenny. Could I add a niger trigger to the tank or would it be too much. It is a reef tank with...

Hello everyone. I am planning on starting a predator tank and what I want to do is plan the tank itself around the fish that I would like to keep. My plan is to have a Black Volitan Lion, a Zebra Moray Eel, a Sargassum Trigger (one of the more docile triggers and far less likely to pick on the...

Two questions Is there a reef safe eel? Is there a reef safe Trigger fish? Tank you for your time

Hi, I've only recently joined, and I have been trying to read the many threads on here. But I thought there may be some new views, etc! I have a Picasso Trigger in a tank, which is currently around 3-4 inches. I am currently looking at a "friend" to go in the tank with him. After reading a lot...

Hello everyone, My 2 1/2" picasso trigger has appeared to have scraped the areas around his trigger, bottom of his body, and his nose. The scraped areas are lighter and around it is darker. I left for the weekend and my roommate somehow managed to cause my lights -WHICH ARE ON TIMERS - to not...

Hey so I have been looking into buying a sargassum triggerfish for my tank which is a 150 reef in progress. But my LFS says that they are EXTREMELY hard to get. so why are they hard to get? And is there any online retailer that usually brings them in good shape? THNX

I bought a sea apple about three months ago and at the store it was closed up. When I got it home I thought maybe it was just ticked off or something because the tenticles looked like crap. Well I just came to accept that maybe thats just how this one was supposed to look. It stayed that way for...

Hi folks! First-time reefkeeper and first-time forum poster all in one! I'm hoping that someone may be able to offer some advice on a crabby problem that I'm currently having? My original 24G nano is appx. 1 year old, my second 24G is about 6 months old - we've been taking it real slow with...

Hello everyone, Since I am new to TRT, thanks to FatTony for introducing me to the site, I thought I would share some pictures and information about my tank setup. I am definitely one who has learned and is still learning from experience and has bought many pieces of equipment more than...
