I was looking at some of my old photos and saw this pic of my blue line trigger when he was a juvi about 2 inches

It's amazing how much he's grown! He's about 5-6 inches now.

Ya it's crazy how different juvi's look from adults. Normally it's mostly with angels so it's been cool to see change with my trigger.

I've seen them for sale at Ocean City (now called Ocean Creation) in Calgary and at Blue World in Edmonton. I'm sure Red Coral could also get them in.

As for the mini check big als next time your in Edmonton

Newest addition my juvi 1" Blueline angelfish

These pic's were taken the day I got him on Oct 9th. He's in my FOWLR tank for now. I thought since he was so small that my king angel would ignore him, unfortunately that's not the case, but for the most part the King leaves him alone. Just chases him into the rock work every now and then, hasn't hurt him yet. It's strange to cause the blueline angel is literally the same size as the King angels tail so you'd think since he's so small he wouldn't even bother with him.

Nice Trigger! He's going to be trouble when he grows up, eh!

Never mind when he get's bigger he's already trouble

He's always blown around the sand bed, only now instead of a little puff of sand he can create a mini sand storm. On the plus side though, it keeps the sand bed looking clean. He also lately taken to moving rock

usually it was 2-3 smallish pieces of loose rock that he'd move around, but last week he decided he didn't like where this one rock was (about a 5-6 pound med. decent sized piece of rock) and kept knocking it over into the front pane of glass

I ended up putting another piece of rock under that rock and finally got it tilted into a spot where he's left it alone for the past few days.

Also he seems to be the only similar shaped larger fish my King angel can't really bully. They do fight every now and then but the trigger will stand up for himself and not back down, so my King tends not to pick on him to much.

Bit of an update. On the sad side of things a couple of weeks ago my red fuzzy dwarf lionfish decided to jump out of the tank and a few days later my harlequin tuskfish didn't look to good and he's been MIA for over a week now

(kinda wonder if my mystery wrasse harassed him to much or something as I've noticed he's started chasing my leopard wrasse around)

On the bright side of things awhile ago I got a rainbow wrasse and mandarin goby that are doing well and another maxi mini anemone purple/green.
