As far as other triggerfish.. we've got most of the common one clown, fuscus.. but not in numbers....

BUT one thing for sure we're working hard to collect the crosshatch trigger.. Xanthichthys lineopunctatus sp. ..

For info... I have 2 Mauritius picasso at the moment in my holding tanks.. they were not collected that deep too... something like 90ft.... will upload pict of them... later

 

[humaguy]

does the Mauritius picasso vary at all from others?
please keep me in mind for any rhinecanthus hybrids you find or any oddball trigger...
thanks!

Hey humaguy,

How are going all triggers?Pls update pix.

 

[humaguy]

sold the triggers about a month ago...
they were all doing well and got quite large when they left me...

 

[Whiterabbitrage]

Sold them?

 

[humaguy]

had to make room to move all the baby and younger fish into the dt...
was a tough move...
have the 2 small male ch triggers, all other trigs were removed...

 

[themoraykeeper]

[humaguy]

Does anyone know how big Rhinecanthus cinereus (Mauritius Picasso) gets? According to fishbase they only get to a max size of 6.5", but this is much smaller than I'd expect. It would be great for me if 6.5" is their max size.

Thanks.

 

[humaguy]

for the most part, they are coming in around that size..for rhinecanthus, these are big fish...

 

[haynesw]

Thanks. That's what I expected. Fishbase must just have an error.

Anyone know where I can find one of these?

 

[humaguy]

havent seen any lately.
