great fish! I love triggerfish.

I agree, I dove Molokini in Oct and right near the surface.. there were hundreds of black triggerfish. I will post a pic later tonight.

i bought one and he was great with my inverts! Still have all my porcelain crabs to prove it. But the little bastard went for my Purple Death Palys one night so he went into the sump and got sold pretty fast. Not sure if I would try another, i really like my porcelain crabs but if I did I might look at a Crosshatch or Kiri.

Im on the other side of the fence unfortunately. Had a male and female, until they ate my copperbanded shrimp and both my cleaner shrimp. Never again.

Seems like a hit or miss. But from the threads over at RC, people have had good results with the blue throat trigger.

I have one and have never has an issue. Love the fish lots of personality

I've added shrimp recently after having my blue throat in my tank for 8 months. No problems at all.

I read that they make grunting sounds? is that true?
