75 Gallon FOWLR Trigger Species tank?

Hi All,

I have researched the recommendations on tank size for trigger fish, generally in the 150-180 gallon range. This seems to be assuming they will have other "bruiser" tank mates. I have previously kept a trigger in a ~120 gallon tank (remarkably well behaved undulate trigger who was quite a character), but that was 30 years ago and we have a lot more knowledge and experience now. I was wondering about the feasibility of setting up a standard 75 gallon (happen to have one sitting idle on a stand) as a FOWLR species tank for a single trigger fish . I would like another undulate trigger, but would be fine with a picasso trigger or similar . I am sure some one has tried this out and could comment on if it is feasible based on experience. What does the community think about the feasibility of a 75 gallon triggerfish species tank?
 
I had a Niger in a 75 but it outgrew it and I moved it to the 240. All of them get big as far as I know.

You could have one until you have to rehome it. Which might never happen. Some fish seem to remain appropriate for their tank and some just keep growing.
