triggers?


Recommended Posts

Are there any Triggers that tend to do well in a reef aquarium? I mainly have all soft corals, zooanthids, and LPS in a 100 gal tank. Only a couple of SPS frags. They're such a neat fish, but I thought they could nip at coral? Just thought I'd ask. Thanks

Sargassum, Bluethroats, Pinktail, Black Durgeon (M. indicus), Crosshatch are all good suiters. Remember, for some species it can vary from individual to individual. Some has keep queens and clowns with no problems at all.

I've had a 6" Black Durgean in my mixed reef with a T. Maxima, a Coral Banded Shrimp, and a Sand Sifting Star for over six months with no problems. They were all in the tank before the trigger was added though. I've kept a few different triggers, and this one is by far my favorite.
