i have a medium size golden heart trigger in my 120 tank that loves to eat aptasa it funny to watch him hover over the stuff waiting for it to open up sould i be worried that he will go after other coral?

Wow! A Golden Heart Trigger. Where'd you find it? I heard they're quite uncommon and costly. Would love to see some pics. Sorry, but from what I've read they are not reef safe.

My Blue Throat trigger just tried to eat my thumb this morning when i was feeding the tank. Little bastards have sharp teeth.

You meant aiptasia? I'm jealous and how come my golden heart trigger has reached 7" for keeping over 16 months and never touch any aiptasia but keep feeding all kinds of frozen and dry food. He is quite tamed and never attacks his tankmates or me when I do the routine maintence work. However, I experienced being bitten by a 4" queen trigger a few years ago.
