Triggers in a reef?

[Dtking]

I was just about to say that the one picture that happy sak posted is one of "Aquariums" from Leigh's store, that one is pretty and very active, and does not seem to harm anything. Everytime my GF and I go into her store we go look at the Trigger, and we call the fish the "Flirty Fisth" because when we come to the tank it always seems to "Flirt" with us!!! I love that fish and as soon as I get my 125 up I am going to get one!!!!

For what it's worth I've always heard the Niger's eat any inverts they find... but Pink Tails (I think they're called) are beautiful and i believe they're reef safe

what about a pink tail and a blue throat in the same tank.....compatible or trouble?

That's what I was going to ask Paul. I think it would be cool to have a pair of blue throats, and a pinktail.

BTW that is a sweet Sargassum trigger! Are they hard to come by?

I have had a Niger in my 90 for a few months now and he has never bothered a thing.

You can find them, fairly often, ask around

Pink tail is more aggresive than Blue throat. So in your tank, Paul,
they should be OK, if the pink tail is smaller than the Blue Throat.
In the smaller tank they might fight regardless.:mad2:

Ill just stay with the blue then.

Thankee.

Also there is a hawian Black trigger That is absolutly amazing but hard to come by. There are also reef safe.

If you have a $1500 laying around you could always try for a Goldernback Trigger.:eek2:
