Just picked up a niger trigger

2" little bugger. Cute little guy, already started eating mysis. Any other things I should feed him? Pics soon...

They eat anything but certainly do best on a carnivore diet, I'm on my second....Cute when small, more beautiful and impressive when large, and they do get very large and formidable, they do grow fairly slowly though.

Is it normal for them to wedge them selves against or in a rock?
