Default Sargassum triggers

I am not adding any more fish to my tank for the time being, but would like to add a Sargassum trigger in the future.

So... I am doing my homework in all the pros and cons of having one of these gorgeous fish. Are they hardy, do they eat well, do they play well with others? I did PM a member of canreef whom tried a couple but he had nothing but bad luck, which concerns me.

I have four tangs, a Picasso trigger, my porcupine puffer and a couple of clown fish, as well as a coral beauty and sand sifting goby. My research says they are reef safe but what is your experience with them? How about personality? Would one get along with my other fish?

Do they have any species specific diseases or immune system issues? Are they fish that are reputed to be cyanide caught or die of any unknown reasons? How large or small a specimen is best to bring home? How long should I have him paid for at the LFS before bringing him home? Any research I have done shows that they are hardy and easy to keep, however that may not be so.

Thanks in advance for the insight...
