![]() Well, i purchased yet another tank..77 gallon..and it came with a picasso trigger.
Apparently he likes the taste of inverts. Any suggestions on how to keep my tank clean? Would blue legged hermits be safe? I will be testing that theory with a few and see how they last. However, i am just wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to how to deal with this? any help would be greatly appreciated thanks Neal

![]() You could go with an urchin of some sort. Pretty much any crab, snail or shrimp you add to the tank becomes dinner.

![]() Actually, I have crabs that are years old living with my Black Blotch (Picasso relative). The crabs are large rejects from the reef tank, they stay hidden during the day and come out at night. I also have a choc star, and a rock boring urchin in there.
Could be my particular individual, but thought I'd offer that up.

![]() Are urchins safe? I figured they would be lunch as well.
Has anyone had a trigger eat a urchin? I have a few urchins that I could throw into the tank... They do a pretty good job of cleaning..that would be a good start

![]() When I had triggers,I had the same problem.Might try very large snails,they seemed to outlast the smaller ones with triggers.My triggers pulled apart any urchins I tried.
