Has anyone had experiences with blue chin triggers? If so, Generally how well do they co-exist with smaller fish and inverts? And what size tank do the do well in?
 
I have a pair in my 55 reef, they may not be good with shrimp, other than that I've had no problems. I tried chromis, not good.
They don't bother my royal gramma, the smallest fish now, fine with hermits and snails.
 
I belive that the Blue chin trigger is the same as the blue throat trigger. The Blue Throat is considered to be a reef safe trigger but may go after shrimp. As for smaller fish it is a hit or miss.
 
I've had one for about a month now. Getting ready to move to a 75 reef when I finish setting it up. No problems with other fish, crabs, snails, etc so far. Does share current setup with a Skunk Cleaner shrimp and hasn't had any problems here either.

Just hope this holds true.
 
I had one for a while that mysteriously died one day (I had a bout of fish that hole up when they sleep die quickly and then suddenly stopped happening when I removed a nasty crab, hmmm). Until that point (about 2 months) he hadn't touched anything other than the Cyclopeeze and even let the cleaner shrimp clean him a couple times that I saw.
