Anyone keep a 8in or more queen trigger with other fish
- Thread starter JC1
- Start date
as long as I keep everyone feed theres no reason for them too. they have plenty of swimming room and lots of hidding spots. and show no signs of aggression towards each other. the only time i've seen my clown trigger get voilent was when I baby sat my friends fish so he could move his tank and he had a clown trigger also and the two of them did not get along.

Taz. how long has the queen trigger been in the tank? and have you any pics?
A juvenile Queen shouldnt be kept in an 80gal...let alone a 6"er, with tank tankmates.
That rediculous. It sounds like you have a very screwed up stocking list, for a tiny tank.
Queens, once they become sub-adults to adults, are not community fish in anything less than several thousand gallons. They're killers, plain and simple and will eventually destroy any other fish you want to risk having with them.

Exactly what I was thinking. There are two well-established lionfish killers in a tank that's too small for either of them (much less for both together).
The tank's been set up for 5 years, but how long have those fish been in there (if it's also 5 years, then the problems are easily seen in the stunted growth of the queen trigger, and probably the clown, if it's smaller).

I'm skeptical of that (meaning that all those fish have been in there for that long, not what you're saying).
From his posts in this thread, he only said that the tank has been setup for 5 years. To me that is often a round-about way of saying that the tank's been setup for that long, and these fish have successfully been in that setup tank for 3 months.

I never said I had these fish for 4 years. I've had these fish since hurricane katrina wiped out my other fish. but before the hurricane I kept triggers and lions together. I hope to have my tank pictures up this week. marrone you dont need to call me names. I'm upgrading my tank next year.

"I've kept triggers and lions together in the same tank for 4 years with no problem. It's up to you, but if that is what you want to do triggers and lions go good together. "
Your where applying that you have both the Lion and Triggers together in the same 80gal bow tank for 4 years in your post.
