Is a huma picasso triggerfish really worth not having corals?

that depends on how much you like them. if someone likes them enough to do a fish only over a reef then i would say yes they are. if they want a reef more than no thaey are not. with that said i had one and reaaly liked it. i wanted to do a reef more so away it went. now im going back to fish only so i was thinking about getting another one.
 
We kept one in a FOWLR along with a Bursa Trigger (Undulated) and both got along well...now as the LR grew stuff, the Huma did pick a bit but as long as we kept it well fed otherwise, it left the rockwork & budding live stock (so to speak) alone... :)
 
I think they are beautiful, I was thinking 75g fowlr, yellow tang, maroon clown, hippo tang, and 6 chromis. Good idea?
 
CR22--great fish, but the common thought is that you need a much larger tank than a 75 for fish that size--Trigger and Hippo Tang will need more swimming room as they increase in size--as for Chromis, I absolutely love them.
 
Yeah I plan to get them both small and watch them grow, then trade them in when they get crammed.
